ah Alex the joys of having a daughter congratulations ...

when she is a teenager buy a gun rack, a shovel, a shotgun and a baseball bat and have them on the rack by the front door right where they can be seen by prospective boy friends...

I intend doing this when my daughter gets older

Oh how right you are, my daughter is a teacher at Guilford Grammar and drives a WRX and her boyfriend is about 6'3", only way I'd ever stop him would be to put a bullet through him.

We were gonna find out too at 19 weeks, but the little bugger crossed his legs.

Have you had much experience with young kids?

yeh her legs were very close together, so theres still a chance of it being a boy, but unlikely.

I personally havent had alot of experience, im one of the eldest in my family and have alot of younger cousins, thats about the closest experience ive had.

My girl tho has had alot of eperience, she is 21 and her youngest brother is 9 or so and older sister is 11, so she has had alot of experience changing nappies etc, she is really good with young kids and will make a great mother.

so much excitement!

Nah.. wait till your in the delivery room and she's screaming all sorts of names at you.. that's excitement !!!

But really it's all worth it.. we have 6 ranging from 18 to 5 and are just great

you'll both make good parents Alex.. as long as you don't buy another Nissan.

when your wife is in labour be sure when you hold her hand that she has a complete grip on the palm and not one or 2 fingers, my wifey crushed my thumb and it has never healed
properly and Im not joking

hey guys, thought id give abit of an update with only 9 weeks until the expected date.

everything is going extrememly well. We had a 3D scan last night, if anyone ever thinks about getting one, get it done, its purely unbelievable.

We had confirmation that it is infact a girl and she is growing very well. The dude described her as 'solid' haha, she has very long legs and big feet.

the quality of these scans are awesome, you can even see facial expressions. She wasnt happy with all the pushing and poking that was going on haha.

so chuffed right now

I found the birth part easy... 1am lots of coffee... meeting your child for the first time is the best feeling prepare dirty nappies and no sleep ha! Congrats

Good stuff!

Just remember that it can happen up to 2 weeks either side of the due date, we were 10 days early. We had only packed the hospital bag the night before thinking we had over a week to go

Our little fella is 11 weeks old already.

Post by **Alex** » Wed Aug 03, 2011 11:13 am

haha thanks guys. Im really really excited now.

Gannon, time goes so quick hey!

I think we shall get the bag ready for the hospital soon. Can never be too organised

And when the baby is finally at home all that organisation goes out the window.

Time to fly by the seat of your pants and hold on tight for the next 18-20 years
