Update 5/25 - I am Father
AY
Yesterday, a few minutes past 2, my son was born. It is our firstborn so I’ve not experienced anything like this before, so as you can imagine, it is surreal.
The birth was by far the most traumatic thing I have ever experienced and I wasn’t even really doing anything??
My partner sounded like she was dying for a good chunk of the time and I felt so bad for her I felt sick, for hours and hours, it was torture.
Also, you know that miniarc in JoJo Diamond is Not Crash with the battle against the stand Enigma, who can capture people in paper when they display a unique habit when truly shocked or afraid, their sign of fear?
I learned mine is violently clasping both my hands across my mouth like an old cartoon lady about to have a heartattack, as that is what I did as soon as he came out. An utter shock to my entire system. Everything became super real immediately and my adrenaline glands exploded like grenades.
Now, however, I have calmed, my partner has said that she actually thought the delivery went great despite the death screams and crying which is like huh okay uuh whatever you say, and I have had the opportunity to hang out with him and he is very nice and pretty and funny and truly an exemplary baby. The most baby that ever was.
We’re currently stuck at the maternity ward for some controls and check-ups and won’t be allowed to head home before tomorrow. We’re aching to head back to the house with the new addition to our family and so we can properly start this up this the new Age of Childcare, Babbletome: Babychild Carelords.
As I am sure you’ll understand, this will stop video production on my end for a bit. Fortunately, I have people covering for me for some stuff so work hasn’t fully ceased.
However, I’ll be getting back to work more properly in about a week probably? Fortunately, I have a treadmill at my workstation, so the plan is for me to walk with the bab in a carrier whilst doing some work. The movements distract and tire him, so it’ll work brilliantly I’m sure, I love multitasking til my brain turns to sludgejuice out my ears.
I can’t write much more than that right now but I just thought I’d give you this update for the time being. Be certain though, EP30 Part 3 is still absolutely on its way.
I hope you too have a very good one (inordinate number of exclamation marks)

Congratulations! And good luck! The start of your child’s life just begun, meaning you’re now a parent for the rest of yours.
Great news ! I hope everyone is doing good, and remember : " as time as proven, a caring parental figure is the best defense against the vileness of Chaos! " Love to you all <3
That child is either gonna be one of biggest 40k fans when he grows up or gonna absolutely hate the franchise due to the fact he grew up right in the middle of shitposting maelstrom.
Hell yeah, dude.
Bro, please take more than just a week. A month at least, cherish this time with your family and don't stress yourself out.
I wonder how a person will develop when exposed to warhammer references from birth?
Truly aDORNable!! Take all the time you need, you have done great work so far. We shall wait for your glorious return to the 42nd Millennium, regardless of how long that is.
congrats Alfa!

Awwww congrats on the little spawn my dude
Congratulations! He shall be our LITTLE KITTEN!!!
GRATZ! When will he join the legion?
Congratulations!!!!!! Wishing all the best to you and your family
The Lords of Terra have dispatched a naval flotilla above the planet just to ensure the safety of this child. Nothing shall harm this world while he grows into a man.
Congrats on your son birth. Just make sure you're a better dad than Big E and you should be fine.
Congratulations! Take all the time you need, the little tatertot is important
Congrats! Best wishes for your family and you!
1) Truly, CONGRATULATIONS! Your post was not only so personal, it was well written. I enjoyed the Jojo tie-in to explain just HOW MUCH you were anxious; I could definitely feel that, and commend you for what you and your spouse (and neophyte human) when through. 2) You're not allowed to mention, "Age of Childcare, Babbletome: Babychild Carelords," without giving us a fan codex now. I want fluff and minis.
Excellent, channel the pain and confusion you experience in the coming months into something productive.
Congrats! Fun thought: mothers' brains chemically delete most of the birthing process from their memories. Hence why they will still do it after the first time. Anyways, I wish you, your wife, and your new child all the best going forwards!
Congrats
Congrats! Take all the time you need.
Congratulations
