Nathan.... If you have your own kidz you'll know that they themselves are the best addvert for using a condom at times mate..... of course it's a bit late by then... but i guess ya live'n learn
Having said that i am and have been for quite a few years now in a relationship that screams perfection. I love my wife with all my heart and we have 2 children, 1 boy (Dan aged 6) and my little princess (Eleanor aged 2).
Dan is from my wifes previous relationship but i have known him since he was 3 and love him like he was my own. My little girl Elle is my only bioligical child and was planned but born 3 months early :| gave me quite a scare tbh, my wife was rushed to peterbough hospital many many miles from where we live and we both spent 7 days in the hospital. My wife (Candy) was in labour for 2 days as they needed to try and slow the birth prosess in order for the streoids she was injected with to work in an attempt to develope Elle's lungs quicker.
At the time we had no idea that the doctors did not think Elle would survive, but when Candy went into full labour baby was breach so Candy had to be rushed in 4 an emergancy sizairian opperation. At this point i was left in a room with no clue what was going to happen next. I can honestly say i have never felt anything close to how i felt at that time in my life.
I decided to wait out side the opperating room she was in and after about 30mins (seemed like years) a nurse came out. I asked her what was happening and if everything was ok? she said "Someone will come out and talk to you shortly".... I can't describe how i felt at that moment in time.
After a short time someone came out and explaned that Candy had lost a lot of blood in the opperation but was doing fine. They then explained how my little girl was still born but the nurse in charge (called Eleanor) never gave up on her and brought her back to life.
She was under 2lb but perfect in every way when i saw her for the 1st time later that day but it would be over a week before i would see her face for the 1st time as she needed to be put under UV lights so had to ware a small kinda blindfold mask and had a breathing tube.
Fortunatly my little Elle was a fighter and on the 1st night in that incubator she pulled out the breathing tube as if to say "I don't need that....". She was transfered to out local hospital after a week and spend a fearther 7 weeks in hospital but came on leaps'n bounds.
Today she is a healthy 2 year old with no side effects from her amazing begining to life. She is my little miracle.
After reading the comments posted here i must be one of the luckest men alive with 2 fantastic children and the best wife i could ever hope for.
