Mine is the same. Have trouble getting her up every morning.Cons.
No money
No sleep
No free time for hobbies.
Any free time taken up with children's hobbies.
Pros.
Palming them off on Nan and Grandad on a Saturday night and getting shit faced!
No seriously though. They tale up MOST of your time and quite often are pains in the arse, but you wouldn't change it.
My son is 10 which is a nice age. He's not quite at the moody (Kevin and Perry) age just yet but is old enough to keep himself happy in the evenings after school while were making dinner and tidying up etc. Loves coming to the football with me and his grandad. Loves playing football. Loves fortnite and Minecraft.
My little girl on the other hand is 3. And bloody hell she's hard work! She takes up every minute of every day! She's load, she's boisterous, she's in to absolutely everything. When she's in bed you honestly feel like you've gone deaf.
Funny story, last week,
7.30 Monday "Eleanor, get up it's time for Nursery"!
7.30 Tuesday "Eleanor, get up it's time for Nursery"!
7.30 Wednesday "Eleanor, get up it's time for Nursery"!
And so the week continues the same.
5.30 Saturday. "Daddy, can we get up now? I want breakfast"!
Maybe try reverse psychology and tell her she has to get up earlyMine is the same. Have trouble getting her up every morning.
Comes to the weekend and I say she can sleep in and she gets up early.
I'm very lucky.Wasn't fussed until we had one but absolutely the best thing you'll ever do. Can't describe it to a non parent and do it justice (even when they'e a little shit lol)
It’s wonderful being a dad. I took my lad to Wembley to see his first ever game - made my day (saw you in the pub before the game). Downside - I had to buy the ticket for the little twat.
Cheers mateI didn’t have a natural inclination to have kids, but as soon as the first one was born, it was like pouring a bucket full of emotion down your neck. Amazing.
The first 35 years are the worst mind....
(Someone had to follow pipkins post. Wow that’s a whole lot of bad luck. Condolences fella. )
Hmm, interesting, because my daughter is more important to me than my wife and and she is more important to my wife than I am to my wife.Having kids was the beginning of the end of my marriage. After we had kids we ceased to be a couple and became a mother and father instead. Since we had two kids, instead of being the most important person to my wife, I dropped to third most important. That's the short version covering 20 years I could write a book about.
I'm not saying don't have kids, but make sure you and your wife remain the most important person to each other, over and above the kids. That's probably harder for the woman than the man because the kids were actually part of her. and you were not.
My sympathies, and wishing you all the best.My Mrs passed away on the 8th May and we never had kids as she had polycystic ovaries. We talked about ivf but we never got round to it. Now she has gone i feel so empty but i'm sure if we had a child that would have gave me something to hang on to (a little bit of her still here).
All i can say is if you can have kids then have at least one, as most people i know say they changed their lives for the better and you never know what's around the corner mate.
By the way she was only 45 so not old by any means.

i think things like this need to be thought through. Its hardly getting a dog, having a kid can make a relationship or maybe detract from what currently isn't working. I have seen a few try this and then still break up but with an added complication. Hope it works out for the best though fellaThanks all for your thoughts...what do you do if the mrs says that having a kid is a red line in the relationship i.e. no baby = not together?
