Hi Kris,

Thank you for the kind words. The guy's role is very different throughout the pregnancy; I just hope to offer a different perspective that is useful to men. Send your husband this way if he has questions or concerns. I'll try to make myself useful if I can.

HI Gordon,
I'm not the future dad, but future mom. I just wanted to say that it is great to have men involved. Since dh and I are TTC again, I know he might need support when we get that BFP again. Tom and I were not married when I lost Tyler...so he really has no clue what I went through, but he does know what "can" happen. I will encourage him to get involved with the dads..even from the get go. So I hope you plan on being around a long time [:D]
