Thank you, mate!

Wife is well, and baby is kicking actively, so both parties are healthy.

Doctors reckon my wife should go into labour tomorrow, or the day after, which is really cool!

Hope all goes well, sir. The adrenalin will take over soon enough, especially if you miss the Parra game.

It's looking likely that I will miss the game!

But I'm OK with it haha!

Get them to move a TV screen to the delivery room if needed. Just don't yell "push" when a scrum is packed.

Thanks, mate!

I feel really weird - I am so excited to welcome my son to the world, and to see my wife stop physically suffering, but I am also so scared to become a parent!

It'll be the second best thing that can happen..Being a grand parent is the best..
Good luck to you and the wife. hope everything goes well..

Thank you, sir!

My mum, and my in-laws, are so excited to he grandparents!

Thank you so much!

I'm blessed that I don’t have to start my new job until October, so the first 6 weeks or so of sleepless nights shouldn't affect me too much.

But it's really cool!

Mate I am really happy to hear such positive news from you. We all know you've had a bit of a rough trot with work and what not and I'm sure there's been anxious moments over the past 6 months. Didn't realise you had work lined up for October, that is unreal. You will be able to enjoy the next 6 weeks or so at home with the missus and the boy. It will be a huge help for your wife to have you there for that initial period as you're both new to this parenting business.... But you'll be fine, piece of piss really.... Best of luck!

Thank you very much, mate!

It's been a challenging 6 months or so, but I kind of got through it by thinking that a lot of other people had it worse than me, so I shouldn't really complain!

But things are finally looking up, so fingers crossed!

How do you know it's harder for them? They've just had nine months of having their hormonal system prepared for dealing with the insanity of a baby. You haven't.

Im probably just looking at it from a personal experience, to be honest.
My partner almost died during childbirth and was bedridden for the first three weeks of our daughter’s life. Even after then it took a long time for her to get back to normal. I even without all that I’d still reckon she had it harder than me. She was the one getting pumped for milk every few hours.

Do you use onlyfans?

That sucks! I hope she's doing better now!

I often tell my wife that if it were up to men to birth babies, our species would go extinct in a matter of years haha.

I am genuinely humbled by the strength women possess - it is truly inspirational.

She’s all fine now, thanks.

 

[IFR33K]

Worst part is my father-in-law hates sports!

He just says my son may be a Doggies fan to rile me up!

Sounds like you need a new father in law.

all the best mate!

 

[strider]

All the best @Eelementary

I have no doubt you will be a ripper dad - everyone can see your caring nature

Keep us posted about how it goes

 

[Gary Gutful]

Great stuff @Eelementary. Hope it all works out mate.

As @strider said, you are a standout gentleman on here. Although, I wouldn't get too full of yourself given how shit the rest of us are.

 

[TheParraboy]

;Looks like all is falling in to place

Dare I say, baby steps for now

I'm sure if we had gaping vaginas it would be a bit f**ken easier.

Thank you, mate!

I'm currently at home (wife had to be admitted to hospital), trying to get some rest, before heading out tomorrow to support her.

So far, things are going smoothly!

Lol thanks, mate!

When the bar is set low...

Thank you, mate!

Things are falling into place nicely - I feel very lucky.

Hopefully, tomorrow, or the day after, I can welcome another Eels fanatic into the world!
