congratulations both! our first was born on the 11th! I really hope MrsQ recovers well from the C-section to enjoy the first few weeks with Lily, and hope you enjoy it too, it's all been a blur to me!
Feel free to email if you want to chat to someone who's been their recently! even if it's just to get frustrations of screaming baby off your chest if MrsQ isn't up to it.

Congratulations, Mrs Quirrel!
Kimbers, you gave your child old forks!? Skimping on proper new toys, are we? Go and buy some new 36's for the young'un to play with!Posted 1 year ago # -
Congratulations
Our first is due in about 4 weeks, so am a little nervous about complications and I hate the idea of seeing my wife in pain yet having to act as though all is fine. Ours will have a very similar name to yours btw, so I consider you to have impeccable taste 
Ah and apparently all the hard work is still to come. My mum said that, but what does she know about it all eh?

Congrats Quirrel!!
Prepare yourself - your life is about to change in a fairly major way, but mainly* for the better!
(* you may question the definition of "mainly" in about six weeks time, while you trip over your eyelids at 3am - but my little one just turned 1 so I know what you have coming
)

congratulations!
It's the best thing ever, honestly
My advice to you is remember that your job for the next few weeks is to run around after your wife. Her job is to sit on the sofa / in bed and recover! Is she breastfeeding? if so if she wants a chat about it or has any questions, I'm now a trained BF peer supporter so feel free to email me

Well done Quirrel and family. I think you prob posted on my thread a couple of weeks ago when i too was hanging around like a lemon whilst Mrs T was in early labour.
It is fantastic i too have a little girl and the more nappies i do and cuddles i have the more i love her and she knows who i am. My record by the way for nappy changes in one night so far is 7!!
Enjoy it and keep us posted

Well I can honestly say after 32 years of never wanting kids, or having any urge to call myself a father all that has changed in a few hours last night.
I spent today for the best part of the morning and late afternoon holding my daughter, yes my daughter on my chest and staring at her in amazement, pride, love whatever that feeling is.
A really humbling experience to realise that I now have a totally new role in my life.
There are a few questions the hospital needs to answer about treatment of Mrs Q and what happened with the contraction medication they gave her and why it went wrong, but other than that the staff were fantastic.
