  1. Genuinely feel a bit light headed after that. My baws have practically retracted inside at the thought.

    Why the f**k did I see it through for all 9 pages?

    Still planning to have at least one more kid, but nice to know what I've got to look forward to. Woohoo.

    You only have this to look forward to your wife is an evil fucker. Mine is, hence the thread.

  2. when my oldest was three he woke up screaming during the night. totally inconsolable. he said that he'd dreamt that he was in a shop and a woman came and took him away to the toilets. needless to say that put the sh*tters right up me. :bairn

  3. You forgot cauterising, You can smell your own baws burning

    The wife had cesarean number two in January and the smell of burning flesh was vomit inducing. Pretty grim. Neither of us could remember that happening with the first one.

  4. I am one of those men. I don't want to have any children. It's strange really - I am an uncle and love my nephew to bits, I like children in general but I just don't want to have any myself. I do imagine I'll adopt when im older though. It's all a bit weird and no doubt there is some underlying issue within myself, but there you are.

    As for the snip, I will probably get it done in a year or two.

    I always thought like that and was pretty adamant that I was never going to have kids. for whatever reason i had a change of heart when I was 35. Love being a dad now. only downside is when my 4 year old tells me 'No-one ever listens to you dad'. :(

  5. I've had it done and it was the most uncomfortable experience of my life. The nurses had to pin me down to stop me hitting the doctor - I was doing all I could to contain my rage but I was growling at the poor guy and probably not making his job any easier. I can't believe they did it with a local, rather than general anaesthetic. It was like being in a horror film - going to some strange wee WW2 field hospital near Brechin to be strapped down and mutilated.

    The injections are liked getting kicked in the stones by Jonah Lomu, plus there's all the general shoving, squeezing and shaving of the knackers.

    I was in full working order in no time so no bother in that respect. The mental scars have taken longer to heal than the physical ones.

    ah, FFS. You're making it sound like mengele is going to have a field day on my knackers!!!! I've already missed a consultants appointment once, i can't do it again.

  6. The wife has been told by her doctor that I need to get the snip if we want to avoid having any more kids. Apparently 'getting off at Haymarket' doesn't medically constitute birth control.

    The thought of having this done makes we want to cry. Like really cry. Having someone tugging at my nuts terrifies me. I can't even watch animals getting castrated on the tv without wincing.

    Am i making too much of this and need to man up?

  7. Mental dream this morning. Had a dream that an Edinburgh hotel was involved in a terrorist plot. Dream was I was on holiday and was watching the news. Saw footage of guys wandering through an Edinburgh hotel shooting people Mumbai style. News said it was a Radisson but I convinced myself it was the scandic crown on the high street.

  8. And it begins....I'm being dragged Xmas shopping this Sunday for our two. Nightmare.

    Amazon. thats all you need. Don't care that they won't pay their share of tax, they make life easier. although i am slightly disgruntled that an Optimus Prime Rescue Bot Trailer would cost me £70 plus postage. It's freaking plastic!!

  9. I've been keeping an eye on this thread for a while now, my partner is now 3 months pregnant with my first child! I'm absolutely over the moon!

    We had the scan today and it made it all the more real. To see the wee legs kicking up and down on the screen was an amazing and emotional moment. I can't wait!

    It's been great reading through the thread and seeing all the stuff that i've got to look forward to.

    one thing i would recommend (if your work allows) is compressed hours. i do 7-4 monday thursday and work from home 7-10:30 on the friday. basically have all day to spend with the boy.

  10. Had the worst week last week with our 4 year old girl. At the weekend we knew she was coming dowm with something. Feverish, roasting hot, complaining of a sore ear. Genral grumpiness. She had an ear infection, we knew. On Monday we took her to the doctor. The doctor looked her over and said, yep, ear infection. But no antibiotics unless the ear is weeping or if the kid is under 2 years old. So we took her home with orders to dose her up on calpol and calprofen.

    Wednesday comes and my wife sees pus running freely from the ear. Back to the doctor and this guy says that it was a middle ear infection. The build up of pus burst her ear drum, causing the pus to leak (which it did for about 3 days). So now, on her left side, her hearing will be impaired for up to 8 weeks while the eardrum repairs itself. Can't help but to think if the first doc gave her antibiotics, she would have been spared not just the pain of the ear infection, but the burst drum, too.

    Push to go to see a specialist. My boy kept getting ear infections and ended up with a perferated ear drum. The ear infections affected his speach development. eventually got taken in a few months shy of his 3rd birthday and given gromets. within a few weeks his speech development had inproved greatly. The specialist that signed off on it said that if we had seen her the first time around she would have recommended the gromets. At that point though I had to push for those and justify why i thought he needed them.

    Just keep pushing mate.

  11. Annora Petrova

    According to the email supposedly sent from one friend to another, Annora Petrova was an ordinary young girl with hopes of becoming a champion figure skater. One night while she was bored, she Googled her name and found a basic Wikipedia page for herself. She kept checking the page, and soon realized that it was just a little bit ahead of her real life, giving her a glimpse into competition wins – and losses.

    When she tries to change the page herself to say that she’s won a competition, it turns on her.

    The page updates itself, spewing tear-inducing hate at her. Finally, it tells her that she becomes “a pathetic little orphan”. Calls to her parents are answered by laughter, and they’re both killed in an accident.

    Annora heads to Switzerland to try to restart her career, and while everything seems to have sorted itself out, she looks at her Wikipedia page again. This time, it tells her that she dies on the following day, “friendless and alone”.

    The email ends with a screen-shot of the wiki… and make sure you take a look at the picture before – and after – you click on it

  12. i can remember the good old days of odd fellows and oblomovs. every so often you'd get the marlboro light girls comming round. give them your pack with one cigarette in it and get a fresh 20 pack. the good old days!!!
