Hi everyone! How are you are all doing? I've been quite the lurker these past few years huh?
It feels only right to make a post here about this because I grew up here. And I really mean that. I found this community when I was 12-years-old and have been here ever since. I turn 29 next month. I've experienced the vast majority of my life with this community to fall back on.
Last year the impossible happened and I got married to this interesting and weird girl I met when I was 14. These days she's an incredible and patient woman. I am beyond lucky to have her.
So, the whole reason for this post. I want to announce that my wife and I are expecting our first child! She is solidly in the second trimester, and the due date is end of March / April 1st.
This describes the feeling pretty accurately
We find out the gender at the end of this month. It'll either be a little baby Charlie or Winifred
This has been quite an eye-opening experience. I appreciate my mother a whole lot more as I watch my wife go through this herself. Oh, and hearing that 170BPM heart rate was pretty much it for me.
I will continue to swoon over this another time. Apologies in advance to anybody I literally go full Maes on.
