Parental Corner

Wow rough night, little guy started throwing up in the middle of the night. My first experience with projectile vomit.

I think it may be because he's teething, his second tooth is on its way at the moment.

Good luck with that. I always thought if they start doing that I'd also get sick, but it's amazing how you just cope and do what must be done. I once managed to catch it. All of it, bucketed in two hands. At least that night I did not have to scrub the couches haha.

Oh yea hgl with that it's still gonna happen a few times and oh brother those diapers..........

Oddly enough his first tooth came out without many issues at all. Maybe we were just lucky with that one. From what I've read, it gets worse with the molars though, so I've got that to look forward to.

Ya, very strange how much your grossness tolerance goes up when you become a parent hey?

Yeah about that i puked over my son the first time i had to change a diaper and my wife said never again i don't have a very strong stomach and i tend to faint at the site of blood too.

So yeah i'm not a bad dad i just can't change messy diapers, did it once and the missus asked me to never again attempt because she doesn't want to clean me and the kids mess

LOL, that's frikken hilarious! But ya, if being a good parent means not puking on your kid, then best to let your missus handle the diapers.

What would Batman say? I think you have lost the right to your avatar.

But maybe I should have tried that angle early on... I'll remember it for the 2nd one (due May)

Might be a little suspicious that you were ok with the first one, and suddenly develop a delicate stomach... You'll need a cover story.

Yeah, agh but in the end I don't mind. But two is going to be the limit for me. My mom is out of her skin because for the first time in give or take 68 years, their will be a baby girl in this family.

Ya I'm not really phased about diapers myself, goes with the territory.

Congrats on the upcoming little girl. I was quite chuffed with my little boy because for a long time among my friends and family, it's been almost all girls (I actually have three god-daughters), so a boy was a nice change.

My wife is on 5 months now, but it does look like a girl. When we went to the 3D sonar with our first one, the couple that came out of the room before us looked totally shocked. Turns out the doc had said it's a girl, so they got everything ready for a girl, like clothes, the baby room, name the works. The 3D sonar revealed it was indeed a boy. The dad had this funny grin on his face though.

My little boy has graduated to a big kid car seat

EDIT: here's a proper size pic

 

[matt]

Hmmm. tapatalk seems to upload photos really tiny. I'll put up a bigger one later

 

[Nemesis]

So went for the 4D scan today. The little missus was sitting up straight, so not the ideal position for the 4D, but I think the scans still came out not to bad

Great thread guys, missed it, rarely venture out from the PC Gamers forum.

Here my son, turning 4 in June. Pic taken on valentines day.
I often joke, its a battle between hanging him upside down or hugging him to bits...

Hahaha brilliant! The thing is for every superhero save - there are many times when you didn't quite catch them at the last moment. It's at that point that the moms come in to do their job.
