Baby Oliver

[Night Falcon]

A Big Congratz on the new production model! Always like to see more additions to the motorcycling fraternity.....how about Kattie-Emmer for a name?? and it works for boys or girlz

[Box'a'bits]

The other thing I want to say to explain things a little more - Ollie is a IVF baby hence the 6 years to conceive. The emotional roller coaster than we went through was very tough. Still sitting here right now with Ollie sleeping on my chest is awesome.

Ryan, congrats to you & your wife. We also went through IVF, & agree it messes with your head. Good that your persistance paid off & you had a result.

Have been waiting to hear this awesome news Ryan & Nicky!

Your wee man looks absolutely gorgeous...

Warmest congratulations to you both

Enjoy!!!

Well done Mrs CooneyR & support crew of course!!
Going thru all the IVF will make you even more grateful of the lil bundle of burps & runny poos.

We too tried for many years & found out we were pregnant 1 week before both of us were to do the Coast to coast & 3 weeks before our 1st IVF consultation. That's the first lesson we learnt about babies- nothing goes to plan.

Best wishes from our whanau

Well done to the two of you.
We've not long had our 2nd one,so it's nice to have one at that age again...It's very easy.Shame about our 3 1/2 year old though,sometimes I wish we could give her to someone else
And you've got all that to look forward to.

Congratulations to you both - really pleased for you both - especially after the trials you explained that you both encountered along the way - as always I'm sure what you shared about your IVF experience will be of encouragement to some other couple! Enjoy - my kids are both adults now 34 and 32 - sadly they grow up way too quick - make sure you enjoy them - they're only lent to us for a time - cheers Aslan

Congrats man. Great choice of name also. We didn't go through IVF, but it took us many years to get our little Ollie (now 2 1/2).

Wait until he becomes your little shadow. Great value, but keep your tools out of reach.

[Woodman]

happy for you both ,you are very fortunate.

Congratulations.

Brilliant news, welcome to the world little Oliver, the futures looking good. Loving Parents that tried so very hard to get you and born in to the best country on the planet.

Should you ever get to read this thread later in life, Because you have made us all really happy, just by turning up, I shall pass on the best advice I can give you for a happy and successful life in New Zealand,......Stay away from the whitebait son..it's yucky!

Congrats to you Ma and Pa and here's to a happy and healthy life for your lovely little Family

PS. Oliver, I'm serious about the whitebait son

Congratulations Ryan ! Great looking little chap. Just follow your instincts ( there is a lot of conflicting parenting info out there) . Hope your getting enough sleep.

Hi Ryan,

Huge congratulations to you both - been wondering when we would get this post!
Welcome to the ranks of the non sleepers - now, I imagine, more of a case of "karitane yellow butt" than "dusty butt"?
Cheers,
