I'll get my lad to stand you a pint when he gets them in, you'll only have to wait 14 and a half years then. Remind me in about 2024.

Thanks! She's decided she wants a home birth. I don't think we'll be able to look our neighbours in the eye ever again!

My mum was a domiciliary midwife for 25 years and loved home births... your wife will have been carefully screened for home birth so apart from the loud swearing, you should be OK.... from a dad's perspective, it's wonderful! [but guard your thumbs]. Then, immediately afterwards, new mums start to think it would be nice to have another one.... must be powerful mind-bending drugs released after delivery!

It's a wonderful time User482, truly wonderful!

Thanks, that's good to know. On a practical note, I really must put the curtains up.

Are 'your' offspring good with ladders?

No, but one makes a really good milk shake and the other is always keen to fetch the post for some reason
