JustJon Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 So, I was up at 6 to go up to Derbyshire, back home at 4 to find out the missus has been having back pains every 5 mins for the last 6 hours. Nothing to worry about - except she's 9 months pregnant and is currently trying to work out I'd this is IT or not!?! Funny bunch really! I might not be online too much tonight... But on a serious note, how exciting! Can't wait to meet my little chap/chappette! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunderbird Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 Yeah right, good luck with staying at the 'clean end' - has she started puking yet? Seriously, good luck mate, no sleep for you tonight my lad, though hopefully a beer at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-kev- Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 Put on the most comfortable clothes and shoes you have it can take a while sat in one of the hospital chairs (20 hours for our first) , would take something to read too or some money for a TV card. Good luck pal Ps when the nurses are not about, get on that gas and air its good stuff :yp: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2bangs Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 Best of luck to you all, stay at the messy end, I was at the clean end for my first and she nearly broke my hand when she squeezed it, second born I was at the messy end, a bit gory but no squashed hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MM Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 Dont be a tart man, get your greens on, and get down the good end. If you miss it, you will be sorry. If all goes to plan, ask the midwife if you can pull the blighter out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just that I er..........sort of......er ......know this bloke.................. friend of a friend like............... and er he was holding the wrong womens hand through the delivery. He was getting away with it to until the 6'4" Police Constable husband turned up!!!!!! 28 years on his Mrs still hasn't forgotten or forgiven the poor bloke Oh so he tells me anyway.

WGD Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 I constantly get reminded by the missus that while she was out of her head on diamorphine and calving I was chatting up the midwife... mind you her name was Laura and she was quite tidy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
