His name is Foster Blair.
He was 8lbs2oz and 22 inches long.
I was in the room, I watched him come out, didn’t faint and cut the cord. I drove them home in my wife’s lesbian Subi. My lesbian Subi stayed at home.

Blair is my wife’s grandparents last name.

I was fully expecting him to come out around 7lbs since I was 23 inches long and about 6 lbs. Unfortunately he ended up with my ultra long foot fingers and prematurely permanent receding hairline. There’s not a lot of hair yet, but just enough to see it.

I learned a few tricks to help calm him down when he gets colicky. He hasn’t been that bad because of it. He sleeps about 4-5 hours at a time at night. My wife and I have a schedule that allows both of us an equal amount of sleep so we’re not completely exhausted in the morning, just pretty tired. We’re sleep princesses.

i am back to work. I was able to take a week off after he was born to help out and get to know him a little bit. And now I’m going to sound evil because I’m going to say that I’m selfishly grateful for COVID. It’s because of COVID that o got to work from home for the first month of his life. Then 2 weeks later someone in our office tested positive so we had to quarantine and work from home for another 2 weeks. So I basically got to spend the first two months with him. How many fathers get to spend that much time with their newborn? Very few.

anyways... how have you been? What have you been up to? Whoring around Guelph, dancing on the hoods of Beemers? Neglecting your kids for a McBurger?

unsolicited parent advice time!

Rock n' play next to the bed helped a ton with GERD for our older one. Yeah, guidance says kids cant sleep in it, but if theyre getting zero sleep cause constant acid in their throat thats not great for em either.

Unsolicited parental advice is welcome! Thanks for that.
At this point he’s on a formula for a lactose intolerance. He has sooooo much gas with breast milk. Even with regular formula. All of the farts and screams. We have him on a formula for lactose intolerance and he’s fine with it. But he screams like a banshee when I take the bottle out to burp him. It’s strange because he doesn’t do that for my wife.

that was the other thing, wasnt sure if ya'll were on formula. Getting the PRECISE mix right makes all the difference. We had to do some custom shit with 2 parts orange can (lactose free) to one part blue can to get the second kid to not just immediately throw up.

yeah.... the 4 going on 14 year old drama llama verifies this.

That said, she's actually getting a lot better through good example. Supplementing "dont do that" with "do this instead" or "have you tried" is amazingly effective.
