slim15 Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 Im in my 30s and have a 3 month daughter. I work 3rds, my wife works 1st shift. we did that so we dont have to pay for baby sitter. that being said I sleep from 6 pm to 8 pm 5 days a week. its a labor of love though, cause she is my life, but i guess the biggest change is sleep.....get ready for none.

Once the baby is here, neither of you will get enough sleep for at least a year. 2. Your marriage is more important now than ever. The baby will of course be very important, but don't neglect each other for the baby. 3. This one doesn't apply for a couple of years. Don't be afraid to spank. But don't do it as the sole form of discipline. And don't use it for "stuff kids do" (like playing in the mud in their Sunday best). Use it for defiance only.

ChicagoBengal Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 We were also all about the gender determination ahead of time. Makes planning so much easier. Plus, I think it adds to the excitement. Glad to hear everything is going so smoothly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhoDeyThink Posted July 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 [u]All is going well. She is feelin her kick now. Still very hard to feel from the outside though.[/u] Side note. TEEN PREGNANCY !! Just found out my step neace (17) is 4 months pregnant. With my wife (34) and 5 months pregnant with our 1st . Its just wierd. She hid it for the whole time. She is full fig so you could never tell up till then. I guess they are keeping it. If I'm 17 and preg...I'm thinking that life is over and I made a big mistake. Just me.
