I sigh in relief as I sit down...and that the bench held up under my weight. I gratefully accept the water bottle from the other father-to-be sitting on the bench. I practically tear the lid off and gulp down some much needed water. I hadn't realized just how thirsty I was. I wipe some sweat from my brow wishing I had worn short sleeves. "Thanks, and you're absolutely right, this belly might as well be my own personal space heater" I said as I rolled up my sleeves, unbuttoned the buttons of my overalls, and slid the straps from my shoulders to get cooler. I run my free hand over my middle, thankful that my boys are sleeping at the moment. I look over at the other man's good-sized belly and see some of it peeking out. "How far along?" I ask as I take a sip of my water.
