Congrats, my buddy is having an unexpected baby but he seems to be pretty psyched as well. Good luck with everything!

For some reason being a father is something I think about everyday and hope I can be one.
Mad props on the kid!
-
Awesome stuff! Congratulations! (Sounds like most people are just getting pregnant in the winter...probably nothing to do but fuck like rabbits)
-
Woah woah woah, you planned a child?
Wow, the future of America is looking up.
I tip my hat to you sir.

Congrats man. A bunch of my friends are having kids and they're a blast to play with.
-
Congrats man!!
Being a dad would be rad (ZING!)
But seriously, take pride dude.
-
If you ever get tired of it though, I hear they go excellent with a side of guacamole.
-
I just wanna say that this is likely the first, and the last, time that anybody on this board will be happy about getting their girl pregnant.

Buy a puppy and a kitten as well, and create a crime solving super team.

Whats the choice of names?
-
damn you! the missus and I have been "trying" for about a year now. i think my swimmers are broken.

I was just wondering, I want a kid around 22-ish. I don't want to be the old fart Dad.

This came to mind for me. Although it wasn't planned. Kid just got his shots today though, and WOW.

consensual sex in the missionary position for the sole purpose of procreation? YOU SICK FUCK.

You are going to be a dad?
CONGRATS RUINING YOU'RE LIFE!

Post baby-check!
Nah, seriously though congratulations.

Congrats.
All this talk about wanting a baby and shit at 22-23, fuuuuuuck thaaaaat! Couldn't deal with anything like that for the next 5 years or so (i'm 24 now), rather enjoy myself before i have to stop and buy nappies.
-

Congratulations. Kids are awesome.
Everyone will want to give you masses of advice and often the most vocal people are those who had bad birth experiences.. try not to let them get to you. All that really matters is to be relaxed about it. Just try to enjoy it all...

The thing is, that when you are in your mid 30s or whenever with kids you will wish you had them earlier because they are so much fun... Changing nappies etc really isnt a big deal...

+1, I'm 21 and have no plans of having a kid in the forseeable future haha.
Congrats and good luck!
-
Congratulations, kids are rad.
I'm almost 23, and there is no way I have the time or money for a child right now. I'm still in school ferchristsakes.
-
I'm getting ready to turn 23 myself in the near future, and figure that kids are out of the plan for at least 3-4 more years or so.
I have 5 nieces/nephews aged 4 or below, so I definitely can appreciate the little buggers and how awesome they are; I just need a few more years to get my shit together and actually have the time and money to properly spend with/on a child.
-
23 and wanting kids? Steady on mate! Not a chance like.
-
Being a dad is fun, you get to play with toys again.
My second baby was born saturday. We have a little boy and a girl now so we're stopping there. The first birth experience was very traumatic. The hospital messed up and had to get a cesarian. The second was a all natural home birth and it felt like that is the way babies should be born.
-
I can see myself being a terrible father, I would probably just fuck with them and teach them the alphabet backwards and that red means go and green means stop. I probably wouldn't have kids very long.
-
Looks like you have to buy another bike soon.
-
THats rad as hell man. Sometimes I think I want a kid cause they seem fun as fuck. Relive you life you know, then sometimes I think I need to wait and live my life. I'm only 26 going on 27 soon. Still got time ya know!
-
One kid's easy, assume you have supportive parents and people youd trust to look after it? Provided you do, you can still keep your social life alive and it wont change much.
Dont be tempted to have any more...
-
dinosaur cake, you are a moron. thanks again for all the words of encouragement guys.

Congratulations.
Impressed that you went with a home birth after a C section... Both ours were born at home too, its the way it should be, hospital is for ill/injured people....

I was just wondering, I want a kid around 22-ish. I don't want to be the old fart Dad.
I used to think that way. Now I couldn't imagine having a kid.
I mean not to harsh on anyone with kids but at my age, the way I conduct myself, a kid would completely negate my way of living. I enjoy going out drinking and hanging around being dumb far too much to have a kid.
Now that I've passed the age where I anticipated a kid being a part of my life I couldn't imagine giving up what I've got for a child. Too much fun exchanged for too much responsibility.

A home birth would give me the chills. What if something does go wrong (wrapped around umbilical cord...). Then you are pretty screwed. Id like to go to the hospital just for the sense of security.
-
Don't forget to take a bite of the afterbirth for good luck. It's an age old tradition.
-
heck yeah man congrats get your kid on a bike as soon as possible!!! :D

Diapers sent
Congrats man

They would do exactly the same thing that they would do in hospital and unwrap it.
I am not suggesting that it is good to forgo modern science. Have the scans, take the advice of the midwives etc, but going to hospital can CAUSE problems in otherwise healthy births. The MOST important thing is for the woman (who is the one who will actually DO everything) to be relaxed, its hard to relax in a hospital. It is very common for women to go into labour and then stop when they reach hospital because they are "stressed". In the wild an animal seeks out somewhere it feels SAFE to give birth, if a lion turns up they can stop and run. A useful evolutionary advance. But for most humans this instinct to stop can cause a lot of problems...

I dont understand why people want to ruin there girlfriends body by letting her dump a kid out her crotch. Its even worse when they get the C-Section and the skin is all flappy. ewwwww!
Ive just seen enough people my age have kids and its awful. They start giving up on going out and getting wasted and talk about there kids all the time and want to show pictures of them to everyone at work. I sometimes feel like grabbing the pic they show me and ripping it half and tell them to snap out of it, they arent the onlyones with kids. There is nothing special about you or your family. I dont care what you had to clean up at 3am, or how you "had a funny when makig the baby formula".
GTFO.

^^^^Quick question, how old are you?

Give me your address and I will come to Florida in 8 months and show you some pics. Please... I beg you, rip one up. As far as the people giving up on going out and getting wasted, its called being a responsible parent. I have been married for 3 1/2 years and trust me, I have done my fair share of partying but you have to grow up eventually. You will see man.
-
congrats, I have 2 boys my self 6 and 2. It is awesome taking them out riding and watching them grow up.
-
Don't forget to take a bite of the afterbirth.
What are you? a fucking animal? Why not just lick the kid clean why you are at.
-
i don't have any kids that I know of
maybe when i'm stable and find a girl worth a shit i'll have kids

congratulations to the kid!
-
Congrats man! I'm 26 and I couldn't imagine having a kid yet. I just don't have the money for one yet, but one day when I'm financially stable enough, I can't wait to have kids.
-
Must be quite epic to try to get pregnant. If now you didnt have some special lame sex to get it. Hope it took some time to get her knocked up.
Congrats btw.

Congratulations homie, don't get rid of the bike!

A lot of people think having kids means you have to "settle down." Some dads give up their 'old life' and settle in. Others don't give up anything and stay on their own mission.
Check out this documentary Surfwise. It's on Netflix. Strange and interesting. . . .
"Legendary surfer, Dorian "Doc" Paskowitz, abandoned a successful medical practice to withdraw from the lifestyle of mainstream America. But unlike other American searchers such as Thoreau and Kerouac, Paskowitz took his wife and nine children along for the ride, all eleven of them living in a 24-foot camper. The family spent their days living by Doc's rules on health, fitness, sexuality, and above all surfing. The Paskowitzs' prove that America may be running out of frontiers, but it hasn't run out of frontiersmen. "

name him sheepdog couch sheepdog

Good news, man. Congrats!
-
Ima smoke my kid out from day 420 on. Oh ya. Father of the year!!!! Kinda want a kid to bad my

That sounds kinda creepy
-
Way to go man, the boy looks great!
-
thanks for the kind words guys! the only difference that i have noticed is the amount of love i have for him. i never imagined someone could mean this much to me. i'm so proud of my wife too. she delivered him naturally and in a little under 5 hours which is amazing for a first child. oh and gamlin, i actually went to school with a guy named benjamin dover.
-
..
-
So cool to hear everything went well, congrats to you both and hi! to your son.
-
does he have a big Weiner?
-
Congrats man.
Would be rad to have a dad that rides BMX.
Must be good to know you have someone to pass on your name. Treat him right.
-
Must be good to know you have someone to pass on your name.
Why?
-
Why?
Why not.
While im FARRR from ready for a kid, id love someday to know someone is passing on my family name. Start a new generation.
-
because the idea of continuing your linage for the sake of a name (and all things associated with it) perplexes me. How we get the concept that we need some sort of permanence in time and go about that by having a child for the rest of humanity to know we have existed is a terrible thing in my eyes.
Had I come from a family that had altered history much more than they have, it might be different. I don't hold close to that chance though, for as that pattern of thinking goes our genetic hubris at best should begin with ourselves. We've all been there though, "you're his brother?" "I can't believe I'm meeting a celebrity's child!". Count me out of the crowd that wants transcendence from the grave.

I can tell you that one of the most awesome moments i have ever had was riding with my kids for the first time! I love it when they ask if we can go to the track or the trails....
-
I don't know how I missed this for so long but congrats man.
-
being a dad is great so far. tiring, but great. and joe, i will say the obligatory yes in reference to him having a big wiener. haha

I come from a family with no real 'celebrity linkage', however, i hold pride in my family name, and no its probably not superior, but i'd also hate to see it dye off.
Is it the main reason i want a kid?? Shit no.
But its something that should make you proud in the grand scheme of things still.
-
My son turns 1 on the 17th of this month. I can't believe it has been a year already! He is walking and has teeth haha. He is an amazing little boy and I thank God that he is mine. Sorry to bring this thread back up but I'm just so proud.
-
Good on ya it's so cool having kids. Hard bloody work but cool as f**k.
-
my old wiener comment gave me a chuckle!

-
Fuck yea.
My kids 2nd Birthday is soon and im Stoked.
Just wait till he is almost 2
hahah FML.
-
more bad news
what?
-
I know this thread is very old but this is the place to post this. My son is now four and his favorite thing in the world is to go to the skate park and pump around the bowl on his strider. It is awesome to be able to share BMX with my son. He has pretty good park etiquette too.
-
I've taken my nephew to the park and he doesn't understand he can't take infinity bowl runs. Nor does he understand how to pump either. Consider yourself blessed I think!
-
Haha my wife doesn't understand that either even though she has been with me forever and seen her fair share of skate parks. Trust me, I use the term pum loosely.
-
Congrats bud, my daughter is 2 now and smarter than me. God Speed.
Typically wait until the first trimester is over to announce stuff though!
-
i have a baby naming kit if you would like to use it.
i named mine Pofaab bb Munx

Dude, you sold me a T1 SFA frame like 5 years ago. I don't ride as much as I used to but when I do that is the frame I am shredding on. Probably the best BMX purchase I ever made.
Saw your username and wanted to say thanks (again)!
