Best weekly pregnancy guide ever!
Ok — definitely the funniest weekly pregnancy <thing> I’ve ever read. It’s a shame it doesn’t email you every week…. http://www.alphamom.com/pregnancy-calendar/ (I just randomly chose a week (7) and got as far as: You: Might be feeling a little urpy and gaggy and pukey. Are incredibly sensitive to smells. Like, seriously. Who burned an English […]

We’re parents!
At 9:42am this morning, my stonkingly gorgeous wife gave birth to our first child! Luther Jacob Collington came in to the world at 7lbs 1.5oz and measuring around 19 inches. Mum and baby are doing well (dad’s not bad, either) and will be in hospital for a number of days to recover. As our day […]

And realization hits…
In less than 12 hours time I should be a daddy. Less than 12 hours. 12 hours, people!! Where on earth did the last nine months go, hmm? Really? Did I loose them down the back of the couch, so that they’re nesting along with the odd change and a host of biro pens? But […]

I felt Bump move!
That’s right; I finally felt Bump move! This might seem like shocker news to you – Lisa’s pregnant and I’m going to feel the baby at some point – but it is. Even when the baby is kicking and punching Lisa, swinging from the umbilical cord, and generally doing cartwheels, as soon as I put […]

Sex? No thanks, we’re British.
We had our final scan on Friday. Unfortunately, the baby was being very modest and we have no idea what the gender is. This means that we won’t find out until the birth! Oh well. So much for planning! But as long as it’s healthy we honestly don’t care either way. (Although we only have […]

Tap-dancing on my cervix
Just for posterity: at 3:50 today I was sitting in a meeting and felt like someone poked me from the inside here: Now it just seemed way too low or on the outside to be a baby kick, really — unless the baby is living in my epidermis! But on the way home I felt […]
