Quoting UTA_flyinghigh (Thread starter): What must I start to think about ? (bigger apartment, bigger vehicles, etc)
Well all the obvious stuff like names, baby stuff, car seat, money. But back to basics get yourself a sturdy mop and bucket to help the missus with morning sickness. Make sure you have all her favourite junkfood in the house. Oh and if you want to be a real sweetheart tell her you will give up everything she has to give up for 9 months just to show how much you care, huge brownie points

Quoting UTA_flyinghigh (Thread starter): What must I start to think about ? (bigger apartment, bigger vehicles, etc)
First of all, think about a good excuse to let your wife wake up at night to feed the baby or change his nappies. Something like: "I got an important meeting tommorow, I must sleep good tonight".
Then think about buying a good barrel of patience, something I really have a lack of (I got 3 sebo-monsters, the little one being 2 months old).
For God's sake, don't buy a "monospace" like many French do when they have a kid, or even worse a SUV, that's totally useless. If you need space, it will be in the "coffre" (sorry don't know the English word) so you better buy a "break" (station wagon ?).

No worry about that. I don't like minivans and loathe SUV's.
If we have 2 or more I am eyeing a nicey Audi station wagon

So it means an additional guest at my wedding ? Rhaa, I know I did the same to you last year, but seeking revenge like that really is mean !
Oh well, many many congratulations from me and my wife to be to your wife, yourself and the UTA 2006 model (or is it a 2007 model if the mouflet is born around the end of the year ?)

Well Done! Life as you know it will change, and you will look back at the time prior to kids as a waste of time.
The first suggestion, worked for us twice, if you really want to have a child, and keep a positive attitude, the pregnancy should go easier. The second thing is, YOUR CHILDREN WILL BE JUST LIKE YOU! I have found out during the last three years with my son. Payback can be a bitch! But of course he is obsessed with LEGOs, and I can barely get him on an airplane w/o him wanting to close the door and leave. So your hobby might become even more important. Imagine if your son/daughter likes airplane spotting, now you have to take them with you. Its the same reason I can buy more legos now, you know, 'its for the kids'.
The money part is important, but more important is for you to be with them. I grew up in a very comfortable household, but when I recall and when I talk to others about their childhood, most of their fondest memories dont involve money, but an experience shared with family. So prepare to spend time with them.
