Baby FAQ with My Husband

You guys should know by now that my pregnancy is coming to an end. Our baby will be here any day now. My husband and I have never been so excited. At the moment, it is all we can talk about. As I sat down to write a post today, I decided that I would bring all of that together. So, on Instagram I asked you guys to ask me some baby related questions that I should put to my baby daddy. Here are some of the most common questions that we were asked and my husband’s answers…

 

 

What are you most looking forward to?

Obviously, everything. Seeing our baby be born. Holding them for the first time. Seeing Danielle as a mum. One moment that I think will always stay with me is seeing my parents meet my baby for the first time. My parents have wanted to be grandparents for so many years and I can already tell that they are going to lose their minds when they walk into the room to meet our baby.

 

What have been your favourite moments through the pregnancy?

There’s been a lot of special moments that will always stay with me. I think seeing Danielle’s bump grow, hearing the heartbeat and so much more. But the most special moment will always be getting home one day from work and seeing Danielle putting together the crib in our babies room. She was sat on the floor, listening to music, surrounded by just about every tool that we own. Her bump was sticking out from the bottom of her sweatshirt and she was describing to her bump what she was doing while putting the crib together.

 

Do you have a preference on the gender?

No. I used to think that I wanted a boy. Mainly because I have amazing experiences with my own dad getting to travel the country and watching football. I used to think that having a son to share those experiences with must be amazing. However, as I see the bump growing, the more I think about if I had a little girl. There would be nothing cuter than seeing a smaller version of my wife running around our house.

 

Is there anything that makes you nervous?

At this stage, the only thing that makes me nervous is not knowing why my baby might be crying. I know the tick list that I need to work through if something isn’t right, but what if that isn’t enough? I’m confident that we will be able to work everything out together, but the thought of figuring out our babies issues when they can’t communicate is pretty scary.

 

Are you going to be a hands-on father?

I want to be as hands on as I can possibly be. I have two weeks off work once the baby is here and I’m going to do everything I can to make Danielle’s life easier and spending quality time with our baby. Changing nappies, giving baths, nights feeds. Everything that Danielle is doing for our baby, I want to be doing. I’ve got some amazing friends that are great dads and they are all telling me how much I need to get stuck into fatherhood.

 

As always, I hope you guys enjoyed this FAQ with my baby daddy. Listening to his answers to these questions was the most wonderful thing I have ever heard. It has only made me more excited to meet out little bundle of joy. I know that my husband is going to make the most wonderful father. We have waited a very long time for this to happen and entering the next stage of life with the love of my life is the best thing that I think could ever happen to us.
