your first?

Yes, our first. As you can imagine, my wife is freaking out about every little pain, bump, and hiccup. The kid's been kicking the crap out of her innards for about a month now, so she's at least not freaking out as much, but every time she sits still the kid starts up again. lol

Hey Grats Exousia!!!  You'll beat mine by a couple of months

Oh? Details! You do your ultrasound yet?

[Brok Ironfist]

Yeah.  My wife was spotting so they had her do the ultra sound already.

This will be our forth kid.  The oldest is 12, then 10 and our current youngest 6.  Boy, Boy, Girl.  Hoping for another girl.

Has your wife gotten the book 'What to expect when expecting'?  My wife used to carry it around.  Research everything that was happening and constantly worry, as you say, about every little bump...

That's alotta kids 

I hate it when parents are like 'aww aint he cute' i'm like....yeah, if you say so 

I just hate kids though...
Then they upload 100 pictures of their baby on facebook and i'm like yuck we don't wanna see that D:

[Brok Ironfist]

It's not bad.  They are old enough where they can keep themselves busy now.  The hard part is when they are less than three.  They require lots of attention.

Now... I spent the weekend with 30 boy scouts (12-16 year olds).  That gets tiring.

[bontrose]

yeah most drop out in between grades 3 and 4

[Exousia]

That's a lotta kids? 

Hey, Alpha, you think that's a lot, then you'll crap yourself at the idea that I'm #1 of 7 and my wife's #4 of 11. 

No, we're not going to try and have a big family as a result.

That's cool, though, Brok. My wife read that book, decided it was crap, and moved on. She's done that with pretty much every book, though. She's not really trusting any source, though. She's had some similar problems. I'll tell ya what it was if you wanna know, but I'm sure some of these peoples are already bored of us chatting about it.

Considering the population crises that will occur sooner or later you should be ashamed

Considering the population crises that will occur sooner or later you should be ashamed 

That's just one more "crisis" on the list of events of dubious credibility in my book, right up there with global warming, but I'm in no hurry to accelerate the population or have things get warmer.

[Brok Ironfist]

Only place having a population crisis is Africa and Asia.  The rest of the world is having a depopulation crisis.

Japan is the hardest hit by far, then Europe and US soon to follow.

hopefully we don't resort to "among the hidden"

[Exousia]

hopefully we don't resort to "among the hidden"

You really think we haven't already? Why do you think they have a problem with abandoned female children in nations like China?

[bontrose]

sorry, speaking of the states

i knew china was doing that

[Exousia]

Still, you really think we haven't already with all the privately and federally funded birth control and family planning programs?

People shouldn't have kids if they aren't gonna bother looking after them properly, simples
It's all kids having kids nowadays


Especially here in England anyway

'Tis true in far too many cases.
