I don't know when it happened that I swapped FHM for books on pregnancy and childbirth but I found myself reading about folic acids levels yesterday.
No longer interested in the wild weekends of my early 20's I am looking forward to starting a family after I get married next year. Would love to start family now but will hold off until after wedding, just seems right.
Pissed off looking at rent direct debits I find my self looking up mortgages and property sections.
Hell I even started thinking about a pension.

my God, that's awful
you used to read FHM ?!?
I suppose that is a lie. I just liked the pretty pictures.
Regards, The Conversion, it's very hard to describe. I'm now a father of two and have only been married for 3 years - Since the Wedding life has just been one major conversion from the life of a pretty free living - though girlfriend of 7 years to coming back from honeymoon and discovering we were pregnant.
I say 'we' because as a man, you may not be carrying the baby but you sure as hell are gonna go through some changes as well.
Now a few years on and one boy and one girl later i feel very blessed and extremely happy in my new role as a father but it really is a case of letting go of certain past freedoms. Babysitting, wiping butts, cleaning puke, cuddling inconsolable screaming children and all the kinds of things that feel alien to any natural man all become your new playstation or whatever thing you used to kill time with.
but hey, it's pretty amazing and can be a lot of fun. just get your sleep in now cos it's gone forever... nightlife gets a whole new meaning :)
Cheers Dude, sounds like a joyous existence. At least you get to mould them into mini-me's and train them to become the next biggest superstar athlete. And I will definately be harder than my future son's friend's dad ;-)
All sounds lovely.... far too sugar coated for my liking to be honest and yes I am also a father so I am talking out of experience...
Have kids and seriously welcome to the real world... ain't all sugar and spice and all things nice either, don't get me wrong it's not a bad thing it just ain't perfect either.
don't get me wrong some days you just want to hop on a plane and leave everyone and everything behind just for some peace and quiet and a break from what feels like a world of pain.
but there's something that tells me sticking is better than quitting on the ol' fam so just gotta ride the wave
