Eco Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Sorry that I haven't been as active lately. Shit has been going on to the extreme at the Persell household. We had to rush my pregnant wife to the hospital because of some abnormalities, but it turns out the baby is in perfect healthy. We also found out...we are having a baby girl. Lord help me...

Glad to hear that everything is going well at the ATL household. Congratulations on your news ! No, it's a big deal here to have all these 'Gender Reveal' parties here in the States where the crowd and couple find out the gender together. However, I actually like my friends and plan on only having get together instead of having 32 get together where they feel obligated to buy the baby a present. I am still a guy however.

We had a scare on Sunday, which is when we found out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a lot of it is the psychological side of things now. Glad baby and mother are doing fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad baby and mother are doing fine. No doubt. I have been told there are a lot of things that can go wrong in the first 12 weeks, that's why we were so happy when we passed that. Thoughts and prayers to your sister though, I can't imagine dealing with that. Thank you sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Congrats ATL. Girls are meant to be easier for parents so a nice introduction to parenthood for you guys. Does it feel any more real knowing its a little girl as opposed to an unknown? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we had to rush the wife to the emergency room, they tested her and found out that everyone is healthy, and then did an ultrasound to see the heart beat and make sure everything looked right. The girl performing the Ultrasound must have been the GOAT as she got a view of the babies torso and legs, clear as day, and there was definitely nothing between the legs. The nurse then said, "Yeah, so I'm 99% sure you're having a girl" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like every new American 'tradition' is a ploy to dupe people out of money. Same with that baby shower bullshit that's been infecting our culture recently.

I'm all for some showers or something, but just one. Multiples just makes you look like a twat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
