Title: Town's youngest fan Post by: magic8ball on Friday, May 23, 2008, 19:53:36 On Tuesday, my wife gave birth to a baby boy, weighing 7 pounds 5 ounces, named Oliver. Was a horrific three day labour ending in an emergency c-section in the end. Scary stuff!
Here's the little cutie: http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z3/pagey123/Ollie.jpg Not a wink of sleep last night, but I couldn't be happier. Title: Town's youngest fan Post by: richiestfc on Friday, May 23, 2008, 19:55:20 ahhh congrats :D

Title: Town's youngest fan Post by: Batch on Friday, May 23, 2008, 19:57:23 Congratulations! Your life will never be the same, but in a good way . Pretty tough going for the first few months on the sleep front, but it does get better, honest.
3 days of labour, holy shit! Enjoy it, when people say they grow up fast they aren't wrong. Only seems like yesterday my little one arrived. He goes to school in September (just in time for #2 to arrive). Title: Town's youngest fan Post by: ronnie21 on Friday, May 23, 2008, 19:58:58 Many congrats Magic. Makes me feel a real oldie now though, we are off to see our youngest grandson in Yorkshire for the weekend!!
Title: Town's youngest fan Post by: magic8ball on Friday, May 23, 2008, 20:05:03 Cheers guys.
I'm already witnessing the who life changing thing. The house sounds strange with baby crying noises instead of the television! He lovely though, we keep staring at him while he's asleep, wondering how the hell we made something so beautiful. Labour was horrific. Worse three days of my life followed by the best! All the best with number 2 Batch, I really can't imagine how people put up with two of them!

Give him a permanent marker tattoo on his forehead. Or dress him up as a ninja, or a Pirate!!!! Title: Town's youngest fan Post by: Fred Elliot on Friday, May 23, 2008, 20:28:21 What a star
Many Many Congrats magic Really pleased that Mum and Oliver are doing well ! Title: Town's youngest fan Post by: Samdy Gray on Friday, May 23, 2008, 21:22:04 Congrats fella.
I reckon the TEF should chip in and buy him an STFC baby suit thingymabob 8) Start 'em young and all that. Title: Town's youngest fan Post by: axs on Friday, May 23, 2008, 21:30:49 congrats m8b, but you could have got him in a town shirt.
Title: Town's youngest fan Post by: magic8ball on Friday, May 23, 2008, 21:35:19 Quote from: "axs" congrats m8b, but you could have got him in a town shirt. Its a touchy subject with the wife at the moment. I'm in talks with the old man to get him one, and then of course it'd be rude not to wear it whenever we see him! When the new shirt comes out next season, will they be selling baby sized ones? I wouldn't have thought so.... Title: Town's youngest fan Post by: axs on Friday, May 23, 2008, 21:36:25 one town shirt, one pair of scissors and a sewing machine. I'm sure you could botch something together!

His Mum is a part time Chelsea fan, so there really is no choice to make. Plus, I've got my first ever season ticket this year, so I'll have plenty of opportunity to tell him all about the famous 08/09 championship winning season :beers: Title: Town's youngest fan Post by: magic8ball on Friday, May 23, 2008, 21:37:51 Quote from: "axs" one town shirt, one pair of scissors and a sewing machine.

While I'm at it I'll knit him a patchwork quilt and teach him all about cross-stitch :roll: Title: Town's youngest fan Post by: axs on Friday, May 23, 2008, 21:39:16 get in touch with your feminine side, it is close season.

I bought my nephew a town kit the day he was born, the day later he was in it, okay so it was a bit big for him but he looked great!!! Do it dude you'll be pleased you did. Congrats on your fantastic news man!! I take it his middle name will be Aage!! Title: Town's youngest fan Post by: ibelieveinmrreeves on Saturday, May 24, 2008, 00:16:03 Congrats! Just this afternoon I was witnessing my 16-month old nephew practice his dribbling skills (with football, without he's already an expert) and my sister is expecting another one around christmas. Can't wait :D

Title: Town's youngest fan Post by: BANGKOK RED on Saturday, May 24, 2008, 15:15:39 Congrats m8b, and welcome to the club.
My girl is 3 1/2 now. You've alot of hard work ahead but it is definately worth it. Title: Town's youngest fan Post by: magic8ball on Saturday, May 24, 2008, 16:56:52 Thanks for the kind words everybody. I'm already seeing just what hard work it would appear I'm heading for.
Sometimes he cries, and I mean, absolutely screaming, and he doesn't want to feed, has a clean nappy, has been winded....Its all very frustrating. But I know, the day I get him out in the garden for a kick about with his first football, it'll all be worth it and more.

We're expecting our first in a couple of weeks' time...so I'd be very interested to hear how you're getting on in a week or so. And hope your wife is feeling OK after the section.

I know it looks bad mate, but women are built for it....or they can always be drugged up. Proof that women have an easier life is shown in the life expectancy stats. In England the average for men is about 76 for women 81.
