yeah, unlike most newborns where you say "cute" but inwardly wince at how much like a skinned little monkey they look, yours is actually genuinely cute

well tbh i've taken like 100 pictures and this is basically 1 of maybe 3 that make him look cute. he's not actually this cute lol.

anyways Rixx,

My wife did not have any shitty symptoms like nausea during her pregnancy. She said it was actually not that bad. She did not enjoy being pregnant though. it cramped her style as she's an elite marathon runner missing one of the prime years for running.

The birth itself was done without pain medications and looked to be (fucking) painful:) She's very very glad she made it through though without the pain meds. No serious tearing thankfully. we had a pretty good regimen of preparing her for that though (not sexy).

best of luck to the rest of you with the kiddos!

Poor woman, I hope she's feeling good about everything, pregnancy is possibly the worse thing ever.

lots of women love having kids (as opposed to being actually pregnant and the act of giving birth).

 

*fixt*

True. But lots also love being pregnant. Less so on the giving birth part but then noone suggested that. I understand that someone not enjoying it might find the thought dispicable but it's very common.

true. a handsome little man.

 

unlike most parents who think their sprog is the most beautiful creature that ever lived i actually thought my daughter was pretty weird looking... she's turned out really bonnie though as a wee girl, the most beautiful creature that ever lived, even... they change A LOT.

 

 

i agree, as soon as my boy came out, i was thinking, damn, i hope he is smart!

 

but since then he has turned into the best looking kid i have ever seen.

 

and also, lots of fugly-looking kids turn out to be good looking adults. you just gotta think of them as exaggerated cartoon versions of their future selves.

what amazes me are noses. Almost all babies have normal little cute baby noses, but for some the "big fat honker" gene kicks in at some point and sprouts out.

I've thot about this a few times. specific artists aside, I think I would be pretty upset if he listened to shitty music. I don't think I'm that worried about it actually happening though as he'll grow up in a family that values intelligence highly and applied to most things that concern us and so probably to music as well. he'll certainly know the differences between thoughtless whimsical music and good stuff from all ages. I don't know maybe he'll just think I'm a lame-o

same question posed to rixxx

Lol

Yeah, I'd like to know how the P family would handle a catastrophy of that kind! ;d

Or perhaps worse, the kid being completely oblivious to music. Having no connection to it whatsoever. ...the horror

Best argument for giving up for adoption I've ever heard.

Two words: Organic Babyfood.

Haha well, my family love a variety of music so who knows, It's quite possible it will hate music and be seriously autistic s who knows eh?

One thing I will say is that although I love music, someone playing it all fucking day and I mean all fucking day can piss you off so maybe I'll have someone to share my woes hahaha

I'm more into silence than music. High frequencies make me really emotionally disturbed so maybe this kid will hate all music? Better bloody like Fleetwood Mac or its out on its own.

You're gonna leave WATMM hanging on the biggest crowd pleaser?

j/k, you don't have to go there. I'm imagining the vaginismus/dyspareunia gauntlet with the "forearm" option at the top

not sure if NSFW?

lol. they usually advise regular oily massage of the perineum rather than inserting massive stuff. and yeah, it's not sexy at all.

Congrats Franklin.

Pshh. I was handsome coming out of the womb.

Seriously, though, my nose sprouted around 8th grade and it took a few years for the rest of me to catch up. Quite a time, puberty. Looking like an idiot, and acting like one as well.

guys im 11 yrs old what r we talking about

seize the moment, Franklin: now is the time to create the first baby with breast implants!

Fucking hell I looked into it- As I have ridden horses for 20 years apparently I'd have a 'iron like' perineum and it can cause delays in labour.

MAssive thanks for the heads up on that one. My lady area thanks you.

little man best be listening to exai!

get your man to channel charlie mingus on it.

another top tip for you rixxx... baby oil that bump generously and religiously every single day... mrs.k swears by this and never got a single stretch mark.
