Feeling excited and nervous! - highwayman306 - 24-04-2015
I'm going to hospital with the missus today for the 21 week scan
I know, I know...Its not car related but I'm excited! This will be my first child and I can't help being a bit, you know, proud
We aren't bothered about the sex of the baby just as long as it's healthy. So today we may find out whether the baby is a boy or a girl
Would be nice to have a lad to help pass me my spanners and stuff, but then a girl would be cool to do that too
Sorry lads, Im just going soppy in my old age and needed a release. Ive been pretty reserved up until now because now its starting to hit home a bit more!
RE: Feeling excited and nervous! - MY95 - 24-04-2015

RE: Feeling excited and nervous! - Iceman299 - 24-04-2015
Congrats mate. The first scan is always a special one.
We had a girl first, who's now 3. She's been helping me with diy jobs since she was 1 lol
RE: Feeling excited and nervous! - Mattcheese31 - 24-04-2015
Nothing soppy about it, it's what life is all about, it's the hardest thing you'll ever do bring up a child but it also carries more reward than anything else, big congrats, I have two boys that I look after full time myself, so I know lol
RE: Feeling excited and nervous! - Moonwalker - 24-04-2015
Congratulations to you both! I was in your position 5 years ago, and I now have a beautiful little girl!
It will change your life forever! You will never look back, you'll love Daddy duties, but you'll probably end up falling asleep at work with the 4am feeds!
lol!
RE: Feeling excited and nervous! - highwayman306 - 24-04-2015
Cheers Ice, Matt and Moon
had the first scan and it was just a blob to me, I know it was my child just didn't look like one, plus it was being awkward turning away from the scan thingy LOLHopefully I get to see the awkward little bugger better in this scan
definitely my child, I'm an awkward so and so Im looking forward to the daddy duties
I can't stop smiling about it haha, anyways lads...here's your rep's

RE: Feeling excited and nervous! - cully - 24-04-2015
Oh! dear Babies! there go's the race car!
you will be selling your car and buying on the spec IF the Pram fits the boot that's what I had to do
anyway it wont truly hit home till you are holding the bundle of joy and torment for the first time
at which time you will need all the luck you can get as these things don't come packaged with a manual
congratulation and enjoy each stage of the growing up as it only happens once and each child is different
RE: Feeling excited and nervous! - Seb_Ryan - 24-04-2015
Echo what cully said.. My both is nearly 5 months now.. Gone quick as hell, took 4 years for us to have him aswell. Because she had a section i held him and fed him first so was an epic bday pressie and yeah i cried like hell! Lol
RE: Feeling excited and nervous! - highwayman306 - 24-04-2015
Im proper excited
I think the pram or pushchair would fit in the boot of the 306...but the subs gotta go lol oh well, i don't really blast music anymore, too old for that really. I think it would be an awesome family car, they are solid and safe...not to mention semi-reliable The hdi in it will keep going so i think the car is def. staying
can't afford another car either lol It was never a race car although some years back I wanted to track the hell out of it but she's sitting nice and comfortable as standard with stage 1
RE: Feeling excited and nervous! - bashbarnard - 24-04-2015

cheers bashy
Im looking for a life change for the better hopefully haha
RE: Feeling excited and nervous! - Mattcheese31 - 24-04-2015
306 boots are big for the car, buggy will fit I'm sure, always did with mine and I managed to keep a small sub, I've driven bigger cars with smaller boots for sure
RE: Feeling excited and nervous! - highwayman306 - 24-04-2015
Cheers for confirming that matt, i think it will be an ace family car
i got a fairly big active sub so its compact but sizey...stay tuned for it turning up in for-sale section lol Good news! Just been told by the missus that she could get her sisters in there with the sub so...maybe a keeper
but...weight saving vs ICE ....decisions, decisions
RE: Feeling excited and nervous! - bashbarnard - 24-04-2015
We have a 306 estate (my 2.1) and Lu has a phase 1 3 door hatch. Never had an issue. Perfect cars for the job. Fit a buggy in fine. The sedan I had wasn't that good though.
RE: Feeling excited and nervous! - highwayman306 - 24-04-2015
I had a phase of being slightly drawn to the sedan's... it passed though lol i thought the boot was alright in those, having never owned one its good to know now
RE: Feeling excited and nervous! - simonh - 24-04-2015
We find the sedan really good because the buggy can go in lengthways leaving plenty of boot space for shopping etc. We also have a NAD mk3 Golf which is handy being a hatch but the buggy has to go across the full boot making at a bit useless sometimes. Either way a 4x4 or people carrier is definitely not needed when you have a baby. The baby seat and buggy even fit in my wife's Fiat Coupe. Just get Tesco to deliver the big stuff and it's fine! :-)
RE: Feeling excited and nervous! - highwayman306 - 24-04-2015
yeah i know the missus would shit herself with a big vehicle, she loves the 306 as much as me...well, i hope she does
i have to clean it though
RE: Feeling excited and nervous! - 306Dan - 24-04-2015
Congrats chief, I hope all's good come the scan for you
RE: Feeling excited and nervous! - highwayman306 - 24-04-2015
Cheers Dan, got the scan in a couple of hours and can't wait
RE: Feeling excited and nervous! - Iceman299 - 24-04-2015
We got a big mamas and papas pushchair. It fits in the boot along with a small ish toolbox and plenty of space to spare. They're pretty well shaped and can hold a lot. One kid is easy with any car. Having 2 kids is when you need a more family orientated car; coupés can no longer be a comfortable option lol
RE: Feeling excited and nervous! - MrBigMac - 24-04-2015
congrats fella
RE: Feeling excited and nervous! - cpikey316_ - 24-04-2015
Congratulations!
Mine was 2 weeks ago, got a little girl called Holly coming in August
RE: Feeling excited and nervous! - paulgtt - 24-04-2015
Congratulations.
We have our 20 week scan next month, it'll be our first too
RE: Feeling excited and nervous! - WiNgNuTz - 24-04-2015
Congratulations dude, my missus is currently 26 weeks gone with our first (my 3rd) daughter, due 1st August.
Hope all is going well so far.
RE: Feeling excited and nervous! - Gaz85 - 25-04-2015
Congrats man hope everything goes well for you both. :-) I've not had any kids yet so can't really add any valid input lol.
