Thanks! There were some links posted but the invitation expired.

When he sleeps at night it is great. Right now I'm on the 12-3 shift, sitting at my computer watching Big Bang Theory while he sleeps in the adjoining room (think a formal living/dining room converted into an office). My wife did some pumping so I'll be able to feed him in about 40 minutes and that ...

We're taking turns "staying up" with him. Basically I'm up right now from 12-3am. At that point my wife will wake up, feed him, and be up from 3-6, then she'll feed him again and her mom (who is staying with us) will take over from 6am until whenever we get up. We're working on getting him...

We go into the hospital tonight so the show starts soonish.

Trying to prepare myself for a lot of hurry up and wait.

My wife's due date was Sunday the 11th. Today is Tuesday the 13th. My wife was hoping the baby would be a little early but that wasn't in the cards. Honestly we've been "ready" for like 2 weeks now. We've been staying within 30 minutes of home/hospital in case it's all of a sudden "go...
