Official NT dad thread: can the dads get love

[sneakaprince]

1 kid (son) but trying for a second. Might adopt a 3rd if I still have the energy.

My son is 5 and I'm mid 30s so I'm hoping to knock my girl up quick.

 

[steebie j]

In my late 30s with a two year old but I want one more.

Me and the fiancé briefly discussed it. She’s 50/50. If it were to happen where she gets pregnant, it would be after our cruise in April. She was extremely sick our last cruise only to find out she was pregnant.

Tell us how you really feel Logan...

My little dude turns one in a couple days and damn does time fly. Can’t believe not only do I have a 6 year old but now a 1 year old. Next goal is a house now because we need some room.

 

[bigpat630]

Have our 12 week appt in 2 weeks. I’m 37 and my wife is 33. We have talked about trying for 2 under 2 before I get any older. Lol.

Life hits ya fast.

Doing it big tho

 

[lpheat22]

Little man turned 1 yesterday, I feel time flies even faster with two now. Wife and I want two more but next is finding a bigger place.

 

[steebie j]

So me and the lady are trying for one more

It’s funny cause when I met her, she initially didn’t want any kids. Then she said only one, so we had one. Now she wants one more.

Couldn’t be any happier.

24 Better Questions to Ask Kids About How Their Day Went

I want to know how my kids' day went. So I figured there had to be a better way to get them to open up when we’re hanging out at the end of the day.

thoughts on pre-school?

 

[stuntman mike]

my son went to daycare/preschool since he was 3 months old. my daughter has been in daycare since 1 year old and she's currently 3. i think she starts testing for kindergarten at the end of this year. i don't know if preschool is that necessary if your kids get consistently exposed to a variety of social interactions and have some semblance of the ability to work independently. seems like the first day of kindergarten would be rough for my kids if that was their first day ever in school.

thoughts on pre-school?

If you have a reputable one in your area, absolutely.

 

[riverdale road]

pdino def. I think being around other kids help with development. My son went after 2 months to daycare.

 

[sneakaprince]

My kid started day care at 3 and I wish we would've done it sooner. My girl has a hard time letting go but it was for the betterment of our kid. He needed the social interactions.

 

[cragmatic]

My daughter is almost 16 months, no daycare yet.

 

[pdino]

Thanks for the input everyone, wifey and I are thinking about putting the lil guy in pre-school at 2 years old. Everyone been doing full time pre-school? I see there are part-time options as well

My daughter is 4 months, wife went back to here job full-time the beginning of this year. Luckily she works from home but I’m on a hybrid 2/3 schedule and we watch here during work hours. It’sa struggle and I especially feel bad for my wife when she’s home solo. We’ve been on our daycare waitlist since before my daughter was born and were finally next on the list. Hoping we can get her in by mid Feb. So hard to juggle both at the same time

Me and my fiancé been WFH since our daughter was born in 2020. Watching her wasn’t as bad as we thought it would be. We figured out a good schedule that works for us. Saves us a ton when it comes to childcare. We trying for one more so I don’t know how that would be

 

[bigpat630]

Just had our 12 week appt. Everything good so far. These appointments are nerve wracking man. Lol. Wife is an early education teacher. Def want to start our child as early as possible.

Anyone join the minivan gang?

Never... if we have 10 kids we getting 2 Tahoe's....

 

[B Sox]

Have twin girls that are almost 11 months old.

Glad I stumbled upon the thread. Could definitely use some tips

Wife refuses to get a minivan. I don’t want one either. Think we’re going to be upgrading her sedan to an Explorer or Expedition within the next few months.

Hybrid, hybrid, hybrid, hybrid, hybr...

If you see me in a Minivan then I have lost the will to live.
