			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>When you are in the happy position of expecting a baby and as things proceed on their merry way we all tend to concentrate on the new mum to be and the new baby, and no one spares a thought for poor old dad to be!</strong></p>
<p><strong>He has done his part so to speak &#8211; but here with us Dad is just as important as mum.</strong></p>
<p><strong>He has a vital role to play during the pregnancy, and an even greater one during the birth.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Then afterwards it is not only mum who will be suffering lots of sleepless nights but dad will as well.</strong></p>
<p><strong>It is a huge adjustment time for everyone and wetotally understand here and hope that someone in the family unit spares a thought for the new dad.</strong></p>
<p><strong>In some cases it is going to be his money/credit/bank card that will be used to purchases so we all need to spare a thought for him.</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Once your wife/partner tells you that she is expecting you are either jubiliant and jumping round the room for joy or you are shocked or ( and lets hope not ) you are horrified and not a happy bunny shall we say.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Later on down the line you have now adjusted to the idea, she is feeling sick most of the time and things are really beginning to sink in now, this is for real.</strong></p>
<p><strong>So often men are left out of the equasion of having a baby. It takes two people in the first place and it takes two all the way along the line.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Everyone fusses around the women, and we completely agree with that, she should be, but we all forget about the poor old man that helped in this venture.</strong></p>
<p><strong>You now have womens hormones to contend with ( good luck! ) and the birth, and all the expenses, and then the most wonderful gift of all the arrival of your son or daughter into the world.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Then sleepless nights, no money and so it goes on.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Now that we have painted a really bleak picture for you &#8211; you are probably completely turned off having sex by now let alone children, the rewards far outway all that has correctly been stated above.</strong></p>
<p><strong>The first time you see and hold your child will melt your heart. The love you will feel for it is like no other, completely overwhelming, the sense of achievement and pride that you created this life will fill your heart with joy, and you will quickly turn into one of those people that carries a photo around with them, and talks about the baby all day long.</strong></p>
<p><strong>We know that you would never believe that at this stage, but you will, and you can count on that!</strong></p>
<p><strong>Start saving if you can, this is only practical advice, as for the next long long time you are going to need more money than you had ever expected to need.</strong></p>
<p><strong>It all sounds so down and gloomy, but it really isn&#8217;t anything like that. It is the most wonderful things you are going to do in your life&#8230;&#8230;.</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>When the subject of babies comes along we all tend to think of women. The mother of the child. Dads or the Man just seem to get left by the road side somehow.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Dads play a vital and important part right from the start in our opinion and are greatly overlooked.</strong></p>
<p><strong>We all know that is takes 2 to make a baby, but you also need two to make good parents. Baby whichever sex you have needs both of you, you both have your strong points.</strong></p>
<p><strong>A new mum needs her man and he needs the women so in our eyes men are hugely important.</strong></p>
<p><strong>When she is expecting, try to be patient with her as her hormones are all over the place and she may not be feeling all that great either.</strong></p>
<p><strong>When baby is born again she will probably be quite emotional so tact and discretion are key here, but she needs to remember that you are out of your comfort zone to, so you are on this wonderful, new and exciting journey together and we hope that you share this fantasatic experience and never forget that bringing another life into the world is one of the biggest things that you are probably going to do while you are on this planet &#8211; so enjoy every minute of it!</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>We talk a lot about the baby and the new mum but what about the new dad he seems to get forgotton about, well not with us he doesn&#8217;t. The man in your life has just been through the same nine months that you have &#8211; we know ladies that it was you suffering ( we don&#8217;t want to get you all angry or upset! ) but your other half had to adjust to a totally new women in his life and now a baby &#8211; this is a huge adjustment for anyone to take in.</strong></p>
<p><strong>The hormones all over the place with you and then afterwards maybe the baby blues as they call them &#8211; life is wonderful and yet complicated at the same time at the moment.</strong></p>
<p><strong>So remember to spare a thought for your other half &#8211; he has just become a dad for the first time or maybe a second if he is really lucky.</strong></p>
<p><strong>It is always a good idea to share the duties of parenting if you can &#8211; you don&#8217;t have to do everything you know. He can change a nappy or feed baby or cradle them off to sleep if he is this way enclined.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Some men will have nothing to do with changing a nappy it all depends on what sort of partner you have.</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Everyone thinks about the mother to be and of course the new baby, which is only right, but everyone seems to leave poor old dad out. The guy has done his job, and for nine months he get&#8217;s left to try and cope with the enourmous amount of changes going on in everyones life and all the major expenses as well.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Having a baby is happening to two people &#8211; and the man often get&#8217;s left out in our opinion. Because the lady is going through all the different stages with the massive upheavel to her body, and the mood swings, and as things grow and develop the uncomfortable lump in the front that kicks through the night and stops her getting a good night&#8217;s sleep everyone tends to forget that this happening to the guy as well.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Plus his wallet is taking a huge hit. Now we would be the first as in our company it is mostly women that work here for obvious reasons &#8211; we totally sympathise with any women going through pregnancy. Some mothers to be are lucky enough to sail through their time &#8211; but most of us lesser mortals find it quite a tedious, tiring and somethines iggling time. We all usually can&#8217;t wait for the baby to be born and get it all over and done with. They say if a mna carried a baby there would only be one to every family and we all agree on that one.</strong></p>
<p><strong>But we have huge respect for the Dad to be. This is amassive change to everyone&#8217;s lives and his world will never be the same again. Instead of being a single man in the world he will have gone to either having a partner or getting married and now a family to support and guide. </strong></p>
<p><strong>A daughter will be a daughter for the rest of their lives and a son will need his dad to teach him everything about kicking a ball about and riding a bike and of course dating girls etc. until he takes him a wife &#8211; or so the saying goes.</strong></p>
<p><strong>So with us to all Dad&#8217;s to be we are on your side as well as the womens and we totally support you in your efforts along the way.</strong></p>
<p><strong>More power to the Men that&#8217;s what we say!!</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>When a couple are expecting most people&#8217;s thoughts turn to the women who is pregnant. Now although we totally get that, no one bothers to give any thought to the other person involved in this &#8211; the man.</strong></p>
<p><strong>It takes too &#8211; remember&#8230;.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Her hormones are all over the place, and usually the guy doesn&#8217;t have a clue what to do, one minute she is weepy and the next angry and the next possibly feeling unwell, so as her loving other the man has a difficult role to play.</strong></p>
<p><strong>He may well have been to work and had a rough day himself and when he comes home he hasn&#8217;t the slightest idea what to expect or quite possibly how to handle it.</strong></p>
<p><strong>When the birth and the baby come along it is just as new and wonderful to him as it is to her, plus he is expected to pay for everything and to understand and be there for now both her and the baby &#8211; no-one could possibly say that being the significant other half is easy.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Having a baby is the most wonderful thing in the world, but especially if this is your first it can be a lovely but trying time, and a new road for both of you to try and negotiate.</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>This section is only for Dads. Everyone thinks about the mum to be or the new mum and we all forget just how important the dad is. Well not with us&#8230;.</strong></p>
<p><strong>If your partner or wife is expecting then you are probably in the firing line lads for all the hormones that are going all over the place. Don&#8217;t get caught ever saying those immortal words &#8221; when the baby comes along it&#8217;s not going to change us is it?&#8221; .  Bad idea&#8230;</strong></p>
<p><strong>Not only do you not know or understand your other half&#8217;s mood swings and food cravings, tempers and tears. Her physical appearance is going to take a little change, but your pocket is going to be hit hard as well.</strong></p>
<p><strong>This is a wonderful and confusing time to say the least.</strong></p>
<p><strong>You probably won&#8217;t know the right things to do or say, but all men feel this way &#8211; you are all in the same boat. </strong></p>
<p><strong>When your little one comes into the world she will calm down &#8211; promise! and everything will be worth it. When you hold in your arms for the first time the most beautiful human being in the world your baby, the human being you created with the person you love the most in the world you will see it will be worth it&#8230;.</strong></p>
<p><strong>As regards the expense, we cannot help you with this problem. Fact babies cost money, and then when they grow up children cost money, and they will continue to do so for the rest of their lives, but the love you will get back and fun and happy times make up for the big dent in  your wallet.</strong></p>
<p><strong>The advice we would give to impending dads or new dads is be patient, it will all fall into place given time. </strong></p>
<p><strong>As for you, you have no one to lean on except hopefully a dad of your own, or a brother or mother or sister or other family member. Everyone will give you lots of advice, but first hand knowledge just can&#8217;t be beaten.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Have fun with your little one, enjoy the precious moments, you will find they grow up so fast &#8211; that is the only advice we can give you.</strong></p>
