At 4:38 this morning, Kathy woke me up, kissing me on the forehead. "Morning, daddy!", she said. We've been trying to have a baby for a few months now, so it's now it's official. I'm so very glad, as we've been together for almost 9 years.

A few buddies and family members of mine have advice, so I extend the question to all of you...any advice?
 
I can't give advice myself as I've not had any experience, but all I can give is my congrats and my best wishes for the future. :cheers:
 
I can't really give any advice from personal experience as I'm only 20 and don't have any kids (although I had quite a scare recently), but I think the best thing to do is to enjoy your free time as much as you possibly can, as you probably won't have very much for a while.

Congratulations though, and good luck with everything involved.
 
Congrats man! :cheers:

No advice from me either unfortuantly, but wow, your the first person in about 10 years that i've heard of who are having or had kids after trying/wanting to have them. Everyone else I know has had them from because of other reasons that we don't have to get into. :lol:
 
Great news, congratulations Pupik! 👍 What you hoping for, a son or daughter then? :sly:
 
Wow cograts pupik..my wife and I tried almost 8 years before my son was manufactured..it was great getting all that practice but..hey...' bless ya buddy and good luck and best wishes .
 
Congratulations. :cheers:

My advice (not that I've had any experience...) is to start and finish anything you've been planning on doing - you want havy any spare time once the wee tacker arrives, and also start saving the $$$. The critters can get expensive at times.

Other than that, support your wife (I assume after nine years?) as pregnancy can make them crazy! :crazy: She'll need you both before and after the baby is born.

Enjoy. :)
 
Cool. Im guessing you must be really proud. Being a dad is hard work and i know it (Conspiracy)
 
Congratulation's :cheers:, it will be hard work but it should be well worth it, if you discout the teen years anyway :lol:.
 
4:38? God damn.

I would've said, "3 more hours, Mommy." :lol:

Anyway, congrats. Don't be afraid to feed your kid until he or she is full; forget what the dumb nurses tell you about feeding.
 
Congratulations. My brother became a father when he was 18 and oddly enough it was one of the best things that could happen to him, it straightened him up a bit and he couldn't live without the kid now.

Good luck
