stlfisher Posted December 13, 2012 Author Posted December 13, 2012 OK...I'm officially hijacking this feed... How about a list of warnings for our new dad: During contractions, your wife can and will kick your butt. During contractions, be a duck... everything your wife says (I mean yell) rolls of your back. During contractions, don't step on her IV. Awesome and cheap presents for grandparents. There are picture frames that record voices. By one each for grandparents or sets of grandparents. Take it with you for the first sonogram and record the heartbeat. Put the pick of the baby in the frame. [*]Don't be surprised if your wife freaks out the first time she watches a birth on film... Mine didn't but half of the moms in the birthing class did. You would think they would no better. I'm sure I'll think of others. Again congrats and God speed. I will remember not to step on any IV! I have seen a birthing video (in high school) it did not end well for me. It is 50/50 I will be passed out by the time the baby is born. My wife was actually present when her cousin gave birth in highschool. My mother in law, as a deterrent, made my wife see the delivery in action. It must have worked as my wife says..."It was disgusting" and "honey your gonna be on the floor". She is right on both accounts.

However, he cried like a baby during the birth of both of his children. Everyone is different I guess.

moguy1973 Posted December 14, 2012 Posted December 14, 2012 Congrats bigtime STL!!!!!!! go fish while you can get as much in as you can, your days on the water are officially numbered my friend I concur...We had ours last May and I've been very limited on how many days I got to fish after that...But I wouldn't give it up for anything. It's the best thing in the world... -- JimIf people concentrated on the really important things in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles. -- Doug Larson
