lapal_fan Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Way-hey! I had my 1st born son 5 weeks ago, it's a piece of piss man. I sleep at least 7 hours a night. It's very fun, 2 weeks paternity isn't enough, every time I go home I see something else he couldn't do yesterday. So I get all the cuddles and bottle feeds from 6 until 12 Bad nappy changes turn into hilarious anecdotes, and he doesn't cry unless he absolutely wants something (i.e. feeding, nappy, hug or sleep - that's it!). It's great and everyone of your friends and family will love it - I seriously can't think of a bad thing.. You'll have a great time, hope the pregnancy goes well, help your other half out as much as possible, towards the end, they all get cranky because they're tired, carrying 7-9lbs of weight on the front of their bodies and they don't love stretch-marks, the bump and being uncomfortable etc. Don't give him false hope you harsh person lol, not all newborns give you 7 hours a night....mine certainly didn't! Apparently me and his mom were pretty chilled out babies that went 5+ hours without feeding.. Maybe it's genetics!? Anyway - we've had 1 bad night since he's been born, and that was in the 3rd week.. I think I got about 3 hours sleep that night because he was grizzly, but yea, apart from that - he's awesome! (Also, Villa won when he was born (Leicester 2-1 in the F.A. Cup), so he's obviously bloody lucky! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StefanAVFC Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 One thing that doesn't scare me about being an adult is having kids. Can't wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only to people that are interested.. obviously. I don't talk about him unless someone says "how's James?" then I let loose with our hilarious antics.

Eames Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Congratulations mate. Pain is relative. Mrs E pushed out both kiddies on gas and air and a TENS machine. Number 2 pretty much fell out in under 30mins. Even she would say she doesn't know what most of them are whinging about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NurembergVillan Posted March 6, 2015 Moderator Share Posted March 6, 2015 Thanks for all the congrats folks. The response has been overwhelming here, social media, friends and family. It's the first time I've ever generated goodwill as a result of having unprotected sex 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Zen Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Big congratulations, NV! Try to enjoy the pregnancy, too, even if it can be a challenge at times. It's all worth it when you put your ear to your missus' belly and feel the little thing react to the sound of your voice. We're having our first in a month, a son. Can't wait to finally meet the wee fella! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
