Welcome Karl...
Someone new to hear my ideas for the first time... wonderful!
Congratulations on your twins ... Did you see the ultra sound images? Hope mommy and girls are doing well.
Some advice from a woman. If you want some good public relations that will last in the heart of your wife for a long time ... be very sweet before, during, and after the birthing experience. Guard your words and don't add any stress to the situation... even if you are feeling it.
Hello. Thank you, yes, I got to see many of the images. My wife is high-risk and on level-2 bed rest, so we actually get to see an ultrasound every week (I found out that isn't normal. I thought everyone got that).
Oh yes, actually, I yell at my wife. I just did. She is on bed rest (her cervix is a 2.5 and she is only 20 weeks). She sometimes decides to be sneaky and go to the kitchen, or drive to the store, and I get mad at her. I know that bed rest is no fun, but it's for her health and the girl's. I know that makes me sound bad, but I tell her, I fix dinner, I take care of the pets, I do the housework, you just relax! If the doctors put her back on level-1, she is more than free to do some stuff, but until, park it.
And yes, I have become the absolute ninja master of self-control. My wife doesn't get angry, she gets upset. I snapped back once (or twice....), water works. I felt about yea big.
