    The waiting for baby to arrive

    Hi! Well fellow forum members.. its been two sleepless nights and unpaid leave as my dear wife has begun her slow labour pains .. 2 weeks early and waiting for the final ok to go into maternity ward... think the baby will be born in the next 2 days just before Christmas! The wood burning stove is blasting 28c of room heat! The place is ready for baby to come into the residence

    Oh what patience we need waiting waiting

    Advanced congratulations Songs. What a lovely Christmas present.

    I have to wait a little longer for our 3rd baby to arrive. But Easter will be fun next year.

    Fantastic news Is this your first? If so your life is about to change so much for the better!!!

    I'm sitting here in a hotel room in the Philippines with my soon to be 6 month old daughter (she was born a week early). The first 3 months are a blur and then they devolop their own charactaristics, the first laugh, the different noises they make as their trying to talk, the way they try to sit or stand and the frustration they show when they cant
    Charleigh just yesterday picked up an empty beer botle and burped into it, I don't think I've ever laughed so much
    Enjoy every moment

    I hope you know some swearwords in tagalog John because I think your wife might be using them during her labour. All the best to both of you.

    Will you be cutting the cord Songs? I was able to when our daughter was born in Phils? It's a wonderful thing to be able to do.

    It's scary just how fast time can fly Steve.
    That special magic will be with you all again soon.
    It's a wonderful family you're building there. Very best wishes from us here in Davao City
