Hi all,
I'm Joe and consider myself to be very lucky. We found out we were having a child when my wife was 30 weeks gone so really had no time to panic and thanks to a very supporting family we managed to get everything ready in time. My wife had preeclampsia so was induced at 37 weeks and gave birth to my wonderful son in September 2013. He is perfect in every way (completely biased of course).
I'm 37 and never really thought I would be a dad, I kinda just thought if it was going to happen then it will, and it did. Life has got better since he was born, I quit smoking, got promoted at work and we are looking to buy our first home later this year, all I need now is Man Utd to catch Chelsea and Man City up in the league and become champions then all will be good.
