Hello Chaps,
Been searching for Dad sites and forums to potentially seek advice when the time comes. My fiancΓ© and I are 29 weeks pregnant.
Our first child is due in March. She has MumsNet, seems appropriate that I (we - men collectively) have a site that we can post thoughts, comments, advice, guidance and ask questions - so, chuffed that I have found this!
[Small Disclaimer - While I have put my website and twitter feed on my profile, I do not want you all to think I have graciously put these details on here to market my company - far from it, however running one's own company I seem to be automatically predisposed to fill in the gaps if asked].
Please let me assure you all that I am purely here due to my being, and becoming a first time Dad, and as I get ever closer to the due date I sense that I will need advice and a place where I can vent to other fathers, that most likely all of you have been before.
So here is to, what could only be a very interesting 2015.
Many thanks
Ben
Hi Ben and welcome. Not too long to go now until you become a dad π
Hi Ben,
Welcome to DAD. Wow not long to go now. Are you nervous about anything? Or are you feeling fully prepared?
Do you know if you're expecting a son or a daughter yet?
Looking forward to chatting with you.
Gooner.
Hi Ben and welcome from me too π
