[Closed] Dadsnet - boom moment

Congrats. Those moments don't stop and can strike at any time with out warning. Mine are now 10, 6 and 2 and are the best thing i have done with my life.

Many congratulations to you and the family.

Our first of the tribe is a little girl...complete and utter daddies girl.

Just take loads of photos and videos, they change so quickly and it really is lovely to look back and see how they have changed.

Regarding dust in the eye....I sometimes wonder if I'm living in the Sahara!!

Enjoy the beer....one of the best tasting ones ever.

Well done to both of you. Weirdest bit is when you take her home and say 'now what do we do?'
🙂
I'll give you one tip - stay well clear of any baby sick after they've had milk. It ****in stinks!

congratulations - soon you will be reciting all the phrases from in the night garden

oh, and yes his name is iggle piggle! 😆

Congratulations! 😀

Following a theme, our 17 month old is at the child minders, i'm working from home and just caught up on some much needed sleep.

My top tip is don't over bath her, and just cotton wool and water for the first couple of months.

Congrats!!!

Have you ever fallen asleep at your desk before?

Many Congratulations!

7.5 years in now and I still remember that moment like it was yesterday.

Everyday there's something new - they'll make you laugh, cry, happy, sad, scared & brave. I have a sense or euphoric love for mine that's hard to explain. It's all good 8)

Dusty in here again.....

Congrats

Well done Mrs NZCol and welcome to baby NZCol. Keep all loose objects inside the car and stay seated for the whole ride.

Congratulations!!

My 4th was born 6 weeks ago and I can tell you the feelings do not change no matter how many you have (although he was my first boy...so it was a wee bit more special).

Where's the gratuitous baby pic then!?!?!

Many other 'booms' will follow. My favorite was in Morrisons of all places about a week after TRHjnr was plunged.
Picture the scene....it's 8 something PM...it's a week day....there's **** all customers apart from me....I have a half filled trolley and a shopping list that consists of wipes, nappies, cotton wool etc....I'm very tired....I'm barely conscious....THEN SUDDENLY, in the middle of the cereal aisle I stop like a bunny in the headlights and say aloud with much trepidation...

"HOLY CRAP, THIS IS MY LIFE NOW!" 😯

The next day I sold my bikes.

Bringing Ms Sandwich home from hospital was when I had a moment.

"Shit, I'm a grown-up now with responsibilities. No one else will come and sort the bundle of joy in the baby seat but us"

That took a couple of decades to come to terms with!

Ahhh bloody dusty again !

Woke up to a lovely sunrise and though "H}%}*{+]*}^}^" I have a daughter ! Out of bed whistling desperate to get back and give mnzc a cuddle and watch the blob hopefully sleeping. We will name her today, my wife saw through me saying Jessica was just a nice name and nothing at all to with my infatuation for Jess ennises bottom !

Thanks for all the best wishes, I've inhabited this place for a long time so nice to share some happy news.

Yay! Welcome to the club!

Congratulations.
(Another one here who was not expecting the *boom* moment)
