Any one want to chat?

I've just been to Raglin too. Waves weren't too good, but neither am I. Hoping my baby'll be better than me and get a Roxy sponsorship or something! (It's going to be a girl by the way!)

No idea. Like a name one day, and then not the next! Not a good sign for liking names for years! We had enough trouble naming our pets! When are you due?

Thats nice. And got lots of alterations if she doesn't like it when she gets older! How are you feeling? Everything going well?

Sounds like you've got a good one!    I'm trying to look after my wife, but it's hard to keep up with her sometimes! I just work out whats happening to her and she's past that and something new is happening! She's a bit happier now she's got some T-shirts and jeans off trademe that she finds comfortable!

Ooops, sorry, hope I didn't upset you! My wife is having a rest on the sofa now. Thinking about having a snooze myself. Stock up on sleep whilst you can, my already-parenting friends keep telling me!

Well, all bosses are supposed to let you have flexible work hours now! Wonder if National'll give Dads more paid paternity time off work? Or even more money for Mums come to think of it!

No thank goodness! Read in one of the 'Expectant Dads' guides that I should be holding her hair back and sponging her forehead whilst she was being sick. When I mentioned that to her she said that there was no way she wanted me anywhere near her when she was hurling! So I offered to clean the loo every night before bed instead. Never needed to though!

That sounds like a good idea. Saw some in Kmart a couple of weeks ago. Big difference in price though as the sizes go up. Might be worth shopping around... I've got to start thinking about storage. Our nursery is currently known as the 'Junk Room'. My surf board, snow board and diving gear take up most of the room... Maybe we should've got a house with a garage. Or underhouse storage. Or even a bit of flat land big enough for a shed. Will get there eventually, but eventually is getting closer every day!!!

Nothing for our baby will be junk! It'll all be loved and baby will like everything. There won't be a single thing we buy thinking 'Oh look, how cute!" and baby takes one look and goes 'Nah!". Yeah, right! Have you bought much stuff yet? We've just got a Mountain Buggy and a rocker swing seat. Trying to decide on a nursery theme first...

Lots of animals sounds good. Zoos usually have some marine life at them too!
What jobs have you given your DH to sort out? I'm in charge of transport: ie car seats/capsules etc. Guess she thought that since I wash the cars I must know about things that go in them already! And typically it was the one thing I couldn't find much info about on the internet. Had to go into the PLunket office in the end!
