Important News!

no flames. should be in lounge, but with the amount of sleep you've had it's forgivable (by me anyways). by the way: congrats... and make sure the child learns C first. they should always learn C first.

congratulations... it is truely a great feeling.. and be ready for many nights of no sleep :) good luck

1. Congratulations on the baby [smile]. Babies are simply awesome. Your life will never be the same again - it's going to be loads better [grin]

2. Pictures of the cutie?

2. Moved to the lounge.

You have an opportunity to breed a programming genius. Teach your child all about computers as young as 2 or 3 years old. Get them to learn everything they possibly can. Make your child learn C++ as they learn English.

Alternatively, make the child a socially apt and well balanced kid. It's like The Sims, I'm all excited.

Now you have a reason to buy this, or this, or this (and don't forget it's companion).

And for when she is a little bit older...This one.

Before anyone asks, mine is due within a few weeks and my wife wont let me get any of these (I will, but wont tell her).

BTW,
Congrats!!!!! Now get your huntin' license and get lots of practice the next 14 or so years.

Congratulations.

Congratulations indeed :)

Congrats with your ++baby!
Now get yourself some sleep...

Congrats on the little one!

My wife and I are about to have a little boy. We had a little scare with her blood pressure being high but it is down now. I will post as soon as he is born. Who knows if the doctors call today we will have to go have her induced. So I could be a father as early as tomorrow.

BTW: I already don't get any sleep between work, college, and programming. lol

Congrats!
The first of many??

Just make sure her first words are "Hello World!"

Good deal! Yeah, baby girls are cool. My niece is a year and a half and is already starting to read a little bit! [wow]

Congratulations.

Pre-mature optimization. Already teaching the little kid bad habbits? [grin]

(this is a joke, by the way)

Thanks for all the responses! I barely got anymore sleep, I've been too excited and all.

Yea, we got induced because of high blood pressure, but the baby is 100% healthy, and my wife is healthy as well (swelling is lasting a bit more than usual but that's because of the blood pressure) and her blood pressure is dropping (now at 135/89)

And yes, even though it's a girl, I plan on teaching her programming so she can be one of the few females in the programming business! Plus, maybe she'll teach me a few tricks as I get older :)

This is definately the most exciting/best time of my life!

I'll post pictures, but I have no idea how (never have in my 2+ years being at gamedev) So if someone wants to tell me how, I'd be glad to post pictures of my little angel! Now to get some sleep! :D

Congratulations! My son is nearly 4 months old and I'm almost able to sleep again!

I don't see how this could be considered off-topic, considering some of the stuff I've seen posted on these forums...

So, congratulations the birth of your daughter! Hope you can get some sleep soon!

Congrats.
