gonna be a dad.....for the second time

[roastelk]

I'm nothing but straight up excited about it this time round. Its driving me nuts though because we aren't telling any family/friends until shes 3 months. at the moment shes 8 weeks.


most of you probably couldn't care...you know, I'm just another stranger doing his part to overpopulate the world etc, etc. But at least I'm getting to blab to someone.

Congrats! ...And thanks for sharing your happiness!:D

[livius drusus]

Congratulations! I remember when you announced the first was coming and how your life was going to change forever. (I also remember that thread going insane (http://www.freethought-forum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=14685) thanks to Adora. Good times. :aww: )

Here's hoping the pregnancy is easy, the delivery painless and the baby healthy and happy. :cincin:

happy for you!

best to the expectant mama...

[Kyuss Apollo]

congrats!
:aww:


edit: now the game really changes, lol. the dynamic of one kid vs two is totally different. In fact the dynamic of two to three, four or five kids is not as great as that one to two.

All the same, this is most excellent news :chairdance:

[lisarea]

Awww, roastelk. Look at you!

Look at what a happy little family you guys are now. That is just so, so awesome.

Congratulations, buddy!

[Leesifer]

Congratulations, roastelk.

ETA! Thanks to l. drusus, esq, I am now reading your first announcement thrad, and didn't realise we'd had the [thanks] button for so long.

[mulebear]

Goddamn breeders overpopulating everything.

Congratulations! :D :happywave: :baby: :infant:

[Qingdai]

Congratulations. Now you already have all the stuff, so that's a plus.

[SharonDee]

Congratulations, roasteds!

And thanks for the trip down Memory Lane, liv. That Adora; what a character. I remember getting so angry when I read her stuff. Now it's just interesting. (Yay, meds!)

[Kael]

Congratulations from me too! Here's hoping the second one is a little easier now that you know the ropes. By which I refer to the ropes you use to tie them up so they can't make any trouble. Some of those knots can be tricky!

never had any trouble with the knots, got all my merit badges back when i was a kid in scouts..

btw..two little slip nooses for there ankles are particularly handy when you want to hang them out to dry on the clothesline after a bath.

There was also that time i used a truckers cinch to mount the baby seat on the roof of my wifes car. It was nice and secure and there was no way Ollie was going to fall off.

[freemonkey]

congrats, roastelk!

[Demimonde]

First of all congrats! :cheer:

Secondly, I have to ask: did your first babby that so totally should have been aborted end up having the twelve finger thing? And are there pics!?

[Gonzo]

I just read some of that thread.
:damn: :whoa: :whatthefuck:

Excuse the sexist rant, but...

Was that bitch on permanent PMS? What the fuck? That twat was way out of line. She came off as a pissed off lesbian that was jealous of the fact that he had a penis.

Please forgive. I'll try not to respond is such a sexist way again, but that bitch deserved it.

[livius drusus]

That was uncalled for, ugly and pretty far off the mark, imo. Penis envy? I mean really. Anyway she's not here anymore so there's no point in the shitty flame. How about just being happy for roastelk instead?

[Anastasia Beaverhausen]

Congrats, Roastelk!

[Gonzo]

I had no idea the Maturin family reared a child, until just now.

Right? It reinforced my strong belief that abortion fights are lame.

laugh, no it must of skipped a generation,Ive read a fair bit into it since though and it can run in families.

They call the condition polydactyly. most people who have it wind up with an extra useless partially formed finger, without bone, connections, or anything. mine was cut off before I even came home from the hospital as an infant. 30 years later the scars are still damned tender, If I bang the side of my hand hard it feels like I'm getting stabbed

youtube polydactyly, the site has some videos of the more extreme cases out there.

polydactyly, is also one sign of several different severe genetic disorders. so if a doctor spots it during an ultra sound, they'll usually freak out and order a ton of tests.

[mulebear]

And yet polydactylism is a feature sought out by some cat enthusiasts. Ernest Hemingway used to raise polydactyl cats.
