DH (heheheheheh) just called me and asked what we're having for dinner. I replied 'I'll see when I get home after I stop at Babies R Us.' He asks why I'm going there, I say 'My co-worker is having a baby, tomorrow's her last day, and I want to get her a few things and make a basket.' He replies 'Are we going to have babies?' I said 'Sure, one day.' He says 'HOW ABOUT SOON.' Me, 'How soon is 'soon'?' He says 'Like in 2007.' I said 'HECK NO.'

Now, I have a feeling Ricky's gone insane, or maybe b/c his best friend just became a father last Friday, and another one of his friends is having a baby in September, but this is seriously OUT OF LEFT FIELD!!!

Do men get 'baby fever????????????'

They get the baby fever yes but more accurately, they get the SON fever!

Men do get baby fever, but don't let them pressure you. Enjoy you first year of marriage!

My hubby is adament we are having girls.... that's what he wants. I know how I was when I was a teenager and I can tell you I don't want to live through that as a parent! Boys would be my preference!

I'm hearing it and we're not even married yet. FH wants a football team. He's out of his mind.

Find a child, and make him baby sit. By himself.
That is the only cure.
It should only take 30 minutes.

OMG...not for my man!!! It makes it worse. His best friend has two little girls who he absolutely adores and every time we leave them after watching them he's like...so, are you ready???

Ahh!
