Title: Yay!! Baby!
Post by: WezV on February 21, 2012, 08:21:27 PM
Well its been a long two days

after 22 hours in labour, 2 different hospitals, 5 different midwives and all the drugs available they finally realised my baby's head was infact its arse, and there was no way it was going to be born naturally

a quick caesarian later and all is good.  Baby V is here, mother is recovering well

Congratulations Wez. I remember being a new Dad and the great feeling of holding my nipper for the first time. You have just given yourself the best job you will ever have.

Congratulations Wez,  I hope Laura is OK after what sounds like a bit of a nightmare there.  It's good to see that your daughter doesn't have 2 arses and does indeed have a head!  I think you're not going to be working on guitars for a while (unless you start to use the shed as an escape room!).   Enjoy the time with your daughter, I won't chase you on anything  :D

Congrats mate and welcome to the club! Hope Laura recovers well, such a good feeling when the baby arrives safely after nightmare labour. You must be very relieved.

If you need any parenting tips remember never to ask me!

Nice one dude congratulations.

Expecting to see threads about what amps you can use at night without waking the bairn etc.

Time for one of these I think

as ever, i have my priorities right - which is why i brought a 50w valve head just a few weeks ago ;)  I have managed to get it down to 8w for home use and have it sounding great at lower volumes.

violet will just have to get used to it (ok, aware i may be being a bit naive there)

i do have plans for a mini guitar coming together too :)

This thread must have got into me-I had a dream that Mrs 38th was expecting. I woke thinking it was real for a few moments! Now if I were 20 years younger........

CROSS POST ;  From 'What's your favorite beer ?'  thread.

tbh i actually think some of the american 'craft' beers are managing to beat us at our own game

Congrats Wez.... and I hope you have been 'wetting Violets head' with PROPER ENGLISH Beer !!
and not this American rubbish you talk of !!
Best wishes
F.

She is certainly vociferating well ;)

Glad someone picked up on the fact i actually managed to convince my wife that we should use a V name - just like i do with my original(ish) guitar designs :)

I think we have settled on Adelaide as the middle name, although i was really pushing for Ripley

Congratulations Wez, there's nothing to beat that moment when your first child is born.

A glimpse into the future, we are currently potty trianing our second and as I'm sat here typing the smell of stale p!ss is wafting through the room.  Oh the joys!

really enjoying this fatherhood thing so far - been a couple of sleep deprived nights but so far no completely sleepless ones - we both actually managed to get 8 hours last night, albeit non-consecutive   :)
