Thanks everyone. It really is a whole new experience but also a wonderfull thing. I thought about the Guide but the main problem is that it needs rewriting every days since all changes. Seems babies "rewrite" themselves more often than Blizzard did with Diablo 2.
We actully get to sleep quite a lot and also can take turns. Although he east often he is quite calm in-between and seldom scream unless hungry (which isn't really seldom). So far everything is thus great!

Given the father, I expect him to be doing calculus by age 5 and writing in-depth video game mechanic explanations by 8. Congrats! :)

Keep looking for that "Plentiful Diaper of Absorption". And make sure he has his "Bountiful pacifier of Sturdiness":P
Ok. Enough with the Diablo 1-references:P
Congratulations, Jarulf!:)May we know the young master's name?:)

I recommend using the Torn Flesh of Souls as a diaper, since Lemming isn't around to do so.:) Also note that when kids get to about terrible two, they earn a level thirty skill called War Cry that would put a D2 Barbarian to shame.
Anyway, hearty congratulations, Jarulf, to you and your wife. I have always felt that smart people should breed. It is good to see fatherhood is treating you well, so far.
It only gets more interesting.
Keep alert for the recursive cash outflow you'll be experiencing as a parent . . . :lol:
