My baby is 5 months and can hold things. She eventually tries to put them in her mouth but it'll make for cute photos

Hell yeah!
For the papis make sure you guys implement walking while your wife is pregnant, I remember when the wife first had her contractions we went to the park and we walked the stairs for 30 minutes until she couldn't take it.
We rushed home, she showered, her water broke, and we jammed to the hospital, got there at 830am and my daughter was born in 3 pushes 844am
All natural and we were outta there quick

Man I wish I could get her walking more but we got opposite schedules. Been pushing for her to walk but she says she's always tired :/ every one of our friends has told her to walk but she's been stubborn. I hope it doesn't make the birth that much more difficult

My girl is the definition of sedentary and after being in the hospital for about 17 hrs, they finally said **** it and reached in there by hand and broke the water themselves. So yea, tell her to be active or it's going to hurt more and take longer.

Fam! Good luck to you and yours!
I really hope my wife gets admitted soon; her pain level grew crazy last couple of weeks. Literally no one thought she'd keep this baby inside past 36 weeks including her doctor and we're on week 39 right now.

We were admitted by 7am and my daughter came out at 6:39pm that night. So she is perfectly fine. I spent the day snacking and napping, brought me a sleep mask and chilled on the couch.

Damn man, I wish I had known about that last week because the wife and I was set on getting a Honda Pilot but since I was trading my Evo in, I would've had negative equity. BMW was willing to give me $4.5k more, so we ended up driving off in an X5

Wife's due date was yesterday, baby in there chillin' like a villain. Wife gets more contractions when she's at home doing nothing than she does when she's walking. Over the past week she's prob walked close to 7 miles. She's done lunges, walked up hills, pushed the stroller up a hill, this kid is completely comfortable. We have a dr appointment tomorrow to see what's up and I'm hopin' she gets induced tomorrow so I can go 'head and get this 4 month paternity leave crackin'

crumps brother
she had contractions around 6am, i remember cause i called off work ... we had a plan going in we didnt want for her to be in labor for hours so during her pregnancy we walked a couple miles every other day - just around the block or the park mostly and of course sex.
we got to the park maybe around 7am, she walked up and down stairs for about 30 minutes till she had pain, we got home and she showered her water broke, we jumped in the whip and got there just in time - 3 pushes and 15 minutes in labor my daughter was born.
i swear every nurse was asking how many kids we had
(it was our first)i credit that to my wife sticking to the birthing plan and keeping fit.

4 months? Paid? What state do you live in? I only get 6 weeks paid at 55% from the state (CA). I get 12 weeks protected non paid leave from work but can use my PTO.
