Congratulations, navigator! that is lovely news.

Congratulations, navigator! When is the baby due?

I'm sure you will be a wonderful Daddy!

Congratulations.

The best daddys love their children.

Always act out of love for your child and you will be a wonderful father.

Congratulations.

Congratulations to you and your wife!

Congrats, Navigator. A child that is wanted and is born from love is indeed blessed as are his/her parents. Your beloved will be subject to a hormone threshing machine over the next months, so if she seems a little out of kilter this will be normal. Overlook it and love her anyway. Assure her that she is beautiful, desirable, and wonderful despite her changing figure and in the event she is sick as a dog at times. It's a wonderful time.

Congratulations!

Congratulations Navigator,

Being a father is difficult, especially during the pregnancy where men are supposed to turn into some kind of super human.

You will be asked to be a perfectly selfless, perfectly patient saint with endless energy and no emotional needs. In addition, any ability you have to read minds, or go long periods without sleep will be indispensable (and this is before your child is born). I understand women go through the physical challenges, but being the man in a pregnancy is much more difficult (with much less credit or understanding).

That being said, enjoy the time-- both the wonderful parts and the trying parts.

When you hold you child in your arms, it somehow makes it all worthwhile.

Oh yeah, a bit of advice.

Buy flowers... now.

Are you kidding?

Congratulations Navigator. How wonderful for you and your family. Such lovely news to hear on A2K. Congratulations.

Thanks squinney, I think this is her first week.

thanks shewolfnm, will do that ofcourse.

thanks Foxfyre, I will try my best to keep her spirit up.

Thanks ebrown p , I will go for the flowers the moment she comes.

Thanks everybody. I will keep the thread updated.

Of course not. But I wouldn't expect a woman to understand.

Harder emotionally?

I might agree with you actually. because in all honesty the hardest part of pregnancy was the loss of control of my hormones and the physical discomfort and out right pain..

i would cry over dropping a piece of lettuce for gods sake... then i would have to eat several heads of lettuce because I craved it so badly..

then a few hours later my sanity would return and I would be sitting on my couch wondering what the **** that episode was all about.

Then it began to hurt.

Having to stand BY someone going through that? And not have the roller coaster of emotions, hormones, and loss of control? yeah.. I can see that being harder. I really can.

But.. if you want to weigh both sides.. sorry.. I still think the woman comes out of the shoot with the more difficult side of the coin..
