Are you going to give her a name 20% of the grandparents hate?
Met her this afternoon and she's amazing
If Baz doesn't do some sort of Lion King style video to just introduce her to TTH, I'm going to be disappointed.
Congrats Baz. My little one is 2 and a half now. It's tough work but so worth it.
Epidurals are life, mate. Pubs should sell them; I'd be bankrupt.Originally Posted by leedsrevolution
And it's all about the midwife. Ours was amazing and the same one from start to finish, which I think made a massive difference. Plus I got sent home before the dreaded first poo so swerved that one.
I'm a twit
First poo of your daughter? Or first poo of your wife post-daughter? I bet both are stinky.
That reminds me - do unborn infants not have to pee or poop? Is it all done through the umbilical cord? Or do they just shit shit shit inside the woman's vagina?
I think a basic biology lesson may be required.
Congrats Baz. I watched MotD at 2.30 this morning as 10 month old decided it was time for a break from sleeping. So yeah. I recommend you have a decent series ready to watch at those weird times in the morning. I watched most of South Park doing night feeds.
They're not meant to poo until they're born. Sometimes they do it inside when distressed and it can cause major problems for both the mother and baby.
Bad, the 'first poo' is misleading, it's more a series of tar like shite. You ain't off the hook yet.
I watched Breaking Bad in its entirety during my daughters 12 weeks of colic. Every cloud.
Baz.
Meconium.
+1 for the pain intervention as well. Fuck the NCT, get in there with the diamorphine and epidural ASAP.
Protip: epidurals are life.
Good luck.

Yeah thats what I found with any fears I had about having kids: nothing is worse than the whole labour process (and maybe the few days after it, which sort of is included). So from then you generally just get positively surprised.
Anyway, I hear, up until the teens.
You clearly didn’t have a kid with Colic.
Never could see the point in them at all but you probably need your own I suppose. Thankfully the Mrs has zero wish for them either.
No, true.
That seems like some sort of really extended form of torture.
Fucking horrific. 3 months of screaming, for 3 hours, (nearly) every night.
Then it took us 9 months to get her in a cot because we could only stop the screaming by letting her sleep being held. On the plus side, I did manage to watch Breaking Bad and a few other series that had been on my to do list.
Surely the point is rather obvious.
To wipe your chin/arse when you're old? That thought had entered my head before when I thought about it but I don't know if it outweighs putting in 16-20 years for the privilege.
There’s a couple of main points to them, none of which are to wipe my arse (mainly because I’m not a sinister nonce).
1) Because for all their faults, kids are fun and rewarding in their own right.
2) Because otherwise the mussies will take over, innit.
Also - fuck giving all my stuff to the government when I carc it.
I just can't see them as anything other than a complete nuisance.
Probably a good job you’re not having them then lad.
Sad to see Ireland fall to the Islamic sword though.
The Poles won't let it go that easy.
We're not interested in the tinpot place.
Suck it dry before moving on.
LR.
The child.
Yeah. You're not Polish.
And the Ukrainian certainly didn’t suck it dry before moving on.
ffs.
Heh. Magic can't smack his kid now.
She just about bled him dry though.
Ophelia? Yeah, if it’s black it probably isn’t yours. Congratulations to your other half though.
Ophelia?
Some people just shouldn't be allowed reproduce.
Alright, Brian. Calm your tits.
Nothing wrong with the name. Shakespearian.
My sister just had a similar terrible birth experience and she looked broken afterwards. My sister in law though had her second on Sunday and she just powers them out without problem.
Hope your wife recovers well.
Giggles used to be part of the Full Name Crew and he has absolutely no place slagging Ophelia.
Congrats LR. Sounds like a bit of an ordeal but hopefully it's smoother from now on.
Ophelia is name wankery. Does he think he's in Hollywood or something? Read too many issues of Hello.
How many Hollywood Ophelias do you know? The only two Ophelias who come to mind for me are Ophelia Lovibond, who is English, and the one from Hamlet, written by an Englishman.
The current trend for name wankery, not the specific name.
It's a classical Greek name. It's not like he's named her Michone.
Ah, the wife's Greek? Makes more sense now.
Giggsy and Spikesy in full on wanker mode here.
Ophelia is a great name for a future heroin addict.
I'm just still scarred by the hurricaneIts a nice name you absolute wankers
Seriously though, glad to hear all's good with the whole thing.
Spikey will kill me for being nice.
I do like 'Full Name Crew' though.
Magic named his kid Amber Rose. After his favourite pornstar. Never forget that.
The only way you can shorten Ophelia is 'Oaf'.
If it gets shortened it'll be to "Fee" (Or however she chose to spell it) I'd imagine.
Or I suppose "Lia" like Leah if she wanted to shorten it to the end of it.
