Babby is FormedFollow

So my wife is in labor right now, but her water hasn't broken and she's not dilated enough to get things started. I missed work yesterday thinking the baby was going to be born then, spending all day at the hospital walking up and down the halls with my wife. (They told her to walk for a few hours and that would somehow help things.)

After we left, her contractions got worse so I took her back to the Labor and Delivery ward and we walked around some more and had the doctors stick their hands up her vagina again to check her cervix. Apparently there is some scale between 1 and 10, and 4 is the magic number in which they would have her stay until the baby is born. Well, it was at 3, so we got sent home again. That was 24 hours ago.

I thought for sure the baby was going to come out last night. I'm assuming it will be any day now.

Anyway, what should we name him?

/b/-tard would be a good name... And grats on procreating successfully.

Lotsa Irish in him? Byrn.




And, gratz on the (almost) dad-hood!!

See, that's getting into the sh*t I was talking about.



Anyway, congrats Kuwoobie. I know I give you a hard time a lot, but so long as you remember you're a dad first, and everything else second, you're going to be fine. And don't worry about screwing your kid up, that's a guaranteed for all of us.

Name him Elisha.

The only real choice is Adam.

Xebroauniaux, Destroyer of Worlds! Sure, its hard to spell, but look at the employment potential down the line?

Congratulations!
As for the name, I'm partial to Eric, myself.

Zuul.

It's easier to find [=[DRIZZZIT]=] on a novelty bike license plate.

Edit: LOL @ [[ causing a wiki link.

There is no David Alexander. Only Zuul.

Oh, settle down. It was a joke. It's an archaic version of Brian. Apparently nobody remembers my real name.

My name is Alexander, and I'm partial to it. David is both my brother's and father's name. One likes it, one hates it.

Wizebock?

Weezbock?

Weeeeezbek?








This was my 6th grade teacher.





All wrong.



On purpose?



For all full year?



PROTIP: All wrong.




BOETCH

Stormageddon, Dark lord of all.. or alfie

Your TMI moment of the day: a good friend of mine refers to her lady parts as Stormageddon.

I veto that one

Would that be Darqflame?

Congratulations!

I vote for "Nyah nyah"

Neil is a good Irish name.

Congrats on successfully merging your DNA with your wife's and reproducing!

One of my five brothers is named Justin. I actually thought about naming the baby after him, but we decided David was better.

EDIT:

Oh yea, the doctor says he is going to induce full on labor first thing tomorrow morning. We will have the baby by then

Mindel is truly gone

My brother's first/middle name is Jason Alexander... As I type this I just now realized his first and middle name combo...

I'm @#%^ing retarded.

My son was born this mroing 1.5 hours after the doctor manually broke my wife's water with some sort of green plastic hook thingy.

I had no idea it would happen so fast. At first I thought she was just having unusually painful contractions (she had been having contractions for 2 days prior) so painful that she began behaving like a maniac screaming obscenities and pleading for me to make them stop. All I could do was hold her hand and tell her to relax. The plan was to get an epidural in her spine for a painless birth, but by the time the anesthesiologists came with their cart the baby's head was already coming out. We were very shocked, and very quickly the room became full of nurses and just seconds later the baby was out.

There was lots of blood and a little poo, but it wasn't bad at all. I am happier today than I have ever been in my entire life.

Oh yea, POIDH

Grats!

I see the baby has the usual "what the hell are all these people doing in my room" look. That's a good sign that he's got a handle on this whole "world" thing.

Congrats. Did I miss the decision on a name in an earlier post or is he currently nameless?
