We have been staying away from social media announcements, but have been fairly loose-lipped so far while letting the rumor machine do it's thing. I thought I would share the news with you guys to keep me from exploding with excitement. Mrs. Monk and I are proudly expecting our first (and likely only) child. My wife is nearly 12 weeks along and is doing just fine. The due date is June 20th (NYM at Atlanta).

cooby classic Nov 29 2012 05:39 PM Re: miniMonk |
And he had that hilarious MOFO post "Transmonk Goes to Bed" when we were waiting to see where Arod would land many many years ago...
|
Edgy MD Nov 29 2012 05:42 PM Re: miniMonk |
Wow! Fifty cranes to anybody who finds that beauty.
|
cooby classic Nov 29 2012 05:52 PM Re: miniMonk |
I might have a hard copy of it, but I think it was before MOFO moved :( It was great...he had it written up like a SI or ESPN article, classic

TransMonk Nov 29 2012 05:54 PM Re: miniMonk |
Yes...I wish I still had that post saved. That was about 3 PCs ago (also about 3 reincarnations of this board ago).

Way to go, Monkie. You are about to have a lot of fun.

Sweet. It was just under thirty years ago when we found out we were expecting our first, and I remember so much about it. Enjoy every minute.

You know that because it's a girl you have to name her Cooby, right? Forum regulation.

Benjamin Grimm Feb 01 2013 07:29 PM Re: miniMonk |
You should also be glad that you weren't "thrown into a ring."
|
Edgy MD Feb 02 2013 04:18 AM Re: miniMonk |
There'll be other rings.

Rockin' Doc Jun 15 2013 03:08 AM Re: miniMonk |
Belated congratulations on your pending fatherhood. There is nothing quite like the feeling of holding your infant child for the first time. You're going to love it.

TransMonk Nov 04 2013 09:16 PM Re: miniMonk |
So, my little girl turned four months old last week. She is strong and animated and hasn't had the slightest hint of a fever or a sniffle in her life.
|
themetfairy Nov 04 2013 09:25 PM Re: miniMonk |
She's precious TM!
|
John Cougar Lunchbucket Nov 04 2013 09:33 PM Re: miniMonk |
I'm certain she'll be just fine but I totally understand how worried you will feel anyway. Hang in there!
|
seawolf17 Nov 04 2013 10:36 PM Re: miniMonk |
Show those docs who's boss, Bianca. You're going to rock this.
|
metirish Nov 05 2013 01:38 AM Re: miniMonk |
All the best to the Monks, find good doctors and trust them......which looks like you have done. All the best, will be thinking about you all.
|
metsmarathon Nov 05 2013 03:16 AM Re: miniMonk |
aw, pretty lady. she'll come through this just fine, as will you.
|
Rockin' Doc Nov 07 2013 01:43 AM Re: miniMonk |
Once it became clear that your daughter was no longer attempting to use the left eye, then it is best to have the ptosis fixed in order to avoid the development of amblyopia. Take heart in knowing that you and your wife are doing what is best for your daughter. I will keep both of you and your beautiful daughter in my prayers.
|
seawolf17 Nov 07 2013 02:33 PM Re: miniMonk |
BOOM. Eye doctor in the house. Nice.
|
Edgy MD Nov 07 2013 02:54 PM Re: miniMonk |
Yeah, I'm not sure I wouldn't have flown down to North Carolina to have Rockin' Doc scrub in on the surgery.
|
TransMonk Nov 07 2013 03:24 PM Re: miniMonk |
Thanks to everyone for the well wishes...and it is great to have the reassurance of Rockin' Doc!
|
Fman99 Nov 07 2013 05:16 PM Re: miniMonk |
Went through similar anxiety when Fboy was 15 months old and needed a general anesthetic to get ear tubes put in. As far as small children and surgery go that one is about as routine as it gets, and yet it was nerve wracking for Fwife and I.
|
TransMonk Nov 08 2013 09:08 PM Re: miniMonk |
Bianca's operation went well his morning. The surgeon was able to determine that the muscle in question did not fully develop before she was born and the condition was not a result of the forceps extraction during birth. The little one is cranky and does not like the fact that she cannot rub at her stitches, but her mood should be back to normal within a few days.
|
Rockin' Doc Nov 09 2013 03:35 AM Re: miniMonk |
Glad to hear that all went well. I'm sure it was a stressful time for both you and your wife.
|
cooby classic Nov 11 2013 12:02 AM Re: miniMonk |
Aw, love her heart....how did I not see this before?
|
Centerfield Nov 12 2013 06:16 PM Re: miniMonk |
Sorry I'm coming in way late. Congrats on the successful surgery. Continue to send thoughts and prayers your way.
|
metirish Nov 12 2013 07:38 PM Re: miniMonk |
Yes, great news. Good that the surgeon was honest, the key is finding ones you trust, all things considered you are placing trust in a person you may never see again, need a good feeling about them.
|
Mets Guy in Michigan Nov 13 2013 02:33 PM Re: miniMonk |
Just catching up to this. Glad to hear it went well. She's a beauty!
