It does to me. It tells me you guys are faced with 'terra incognita', so no wonder you are probably scared and unsure how to go forward
yet at the same time you are realistic and "move on" type of person and accepted the situation,
and chose to deal with it instead of whine and sulk which I admire and applaud.
We here deaf and HoH can tell you this much - being born deaf is nothing.
What is hard is being late deafened.
But people who are born deaf, they are born without sound so for them it's a natural state.
We have adjusted to deal with lack of sound from the very beginning.
It's rather the hearing parents and further family and friends who needs to learn to deal with it 
You are doing very well so far.
I agree with Lucas, though, that it would be very good to also give your child an opportunity to learn how to speak, too. It does come useful in everyday general communication as most people in our immediate surroundings are hearing. But it is not strictly necessary, just useful.
