Hi ladies,
As you all know it's Fathers Day in a couple of weeks (how could you not notice with all the junk mail advertising the 'perfect' fathers day pressies...
Anyways, for the month of September OHbaby! is doing a focus on Fathers. So we'd love to hear what some of our Dad's think. We have a couple of Dad's stories you can check out http://www.ohbaby.co.nz/article.aspx?ContentID=526 - here but we'd love to hear your DH/DP's thoughts on TTC, pregnancy, being a Dad, anything really.
Email it to us at dads@ohbaby.co.nz and we'll post it on OHbaby!

I'll have a word with Nat and see if he's keen!
Hey Jax, if you tell Roland that Nat is going to contribute, and if I tell Nat that Roland is going to contribute, we can shame the pair of them into definitely doing something!

the problem is...Jax and Becca, if you give them a logon, to write stuff for Emma, they can read THAT! I may allow Lewis to write something, then I will cut and paste onto here.

Yeah, that was my plan - not to actually give him a log on, but just get Roland to write something and pass it on to me

Wow what a cool idea cause Hubby wrote my birth thingy that is all I will get out of him. As for Father's day he will be lucky if I even remember he was not very nive on Mother's day. Stupid thing is I will prob get him a card and everything.

Thanks ladies! We might even be able to find a little reward for these wonderful Dad's - it's funny what men will do when there's something in it for them...

Nathaniel emailed you something last night, Emma...
and after he'd pressed "Send", I confessed that it was my idea to say that Roland was thinking about contributing to get Nat to contribute too... Nat has decided women are conniving (sp?) but said he would have sent it in anyway because I'd asked.

Thanks Becca I just sent Nathaniel an email saying thank you, but me thinks there was probably a bit of encouragement from you to get him to do it, so thank you too!

Is "moderating" your excuse for being on here most of today Emma?! Hmmm, I guess at least you have an excuse...
