Come May 2017, Mrs 169 and I will be welcoming our first child to the world..

We are both really excited and looking forward to becoming parents.

Golf membership will probably be put on back burner for a year or so, but it may give th opportunity to play some other courses.

Any tips for an expecting parent?
 
Congrats Phil - when the baby due ? Ours is due end of April
 
Well done matey. Just relax and enjoy it. You'll experience every emotion, every mental state, every physical state and you'll love every second of it.
 
Congrats. You asked for tips, I'll give you two.

1/ Take pictures constantly. They grow so quickly and it is lovely to look back on them. You think you will but it is easy to forget and then you miss chunks

2/ You will feel more knackered than you have ever done before. If someone offers to babysit take them up on it. You may just stay in and sleep, you may go out but boy will you appreciate it. Don't be polite and decline, take every chance you can.

Enjoy, it is a brilliant time in your life.
 
Congrats me man.

Tips
trim your finger nails so you dont get as much crap under them when changing nappies.
Check out gigglebellies on you tube. Twinkle twinkle and row row row your boat are my personal favourites. They will
be your beat pal when little un is playing up.
 
Congratulations. Hope it all goes well and the birth goes well in due course. I got the work/family split wrong and wish I could rerun that time in my/theirs life again.

Therefore my tip would be spend as much time with them when they are young and enjoy the time and have fun.
