MB Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Yet another doonhamer! Congratulations on the birth of baby Josh. As others have said, sleep deprivation has only just started. If it's any comfort, you do get used to surviving on a few hours a night. One more thing, you may as well forget about a social life. Welcome to parenthood. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shuggie_Murray7 Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 I'm delighted to announce baby dhd arrived at 6.55 this morning. We have a wee boy, weighing in at 8lb 3. Both mum and baby are fine. I'm shattered, but sheer delight is keeping me awake. Congrats man!! This has got me excited about our arrival now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey Tennis Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Well done all. Always a splendid thing when Queens fans breed successfully, especially outside of captivity. On the sleep thing, you might get lucky. We did the first time round, leading me to believe that I'd sussed the situation and skilfully played it brilliantly, as she settled into sleeping for 12 hour stretches overnight within a fortnight of her birth, Four years later, her wee brother came along though to prove we'd cluelessly fluked it the first time. Enjoy it all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RH33 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 10 weeks thats flew in. mind you wife just reminded me our youngest is 30 weeks already. Tell me about it! Finish tomorrow for 5 weeks annual leave and then onto maternity leave. Ready for it though as the sleepless nights and 4.30am alarms are knackering. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll do mine when I get back from my parents mid Feb. Just finished work and got a lovely selection of baby clothes, in fact heaps of them from my colleagues. Glad to be finished with the 4.30am alarm. 5 weeks annual leave and then mat leave. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's using up her annual leave before mat leave starts too, i dont think it untill the end of Feb tho. I'm just going to take me two weeks to begin with, i've got an inclin i'll be happy to get back to it after that, I can always take another couple of weeks leave if i feel like it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just going to take me two weeks to begin with, i've got an inclin i'll be happy to get back to it after that, I can always take another couple of weeks leave if i feel like it. I was going to finish mid Feb but when we worked out my restart date it would have been at a point in the year where we are really busy and by then a new system will be in place which I will need trained on. So being the nice person I am I said I'd go back a bit early if I could finish a bit earlier. My husband gets 2 weeks Pat leave but only one of them is at full pay so he'll take that and then a weeks annual leave. My mum will probably then come back down for a week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
