It was a Friday morning on which I woke early as we had decided the night before to perform a pregnancy test first thing. I gently nudged my wife to wake her to get on with things. We were both hopeful that there would be a baby on the way, so with anticipation we waited for the test to take effect. Moments later there was a gleeful look on Alex’s face. I automatically knew the outcome – I’m to be a dad for the second time.

That day started brilliantly but then came the frustration. After such wonderful news I quickly had to pull myself out of the clouds and prepare to go to work. Work was just a by-product on that Friday – all I could think about was the impending arrival but as it was early days not being able to share the news with my friends and colleagues was so difficult.
