Sticky infants?

Nothing stops the road warrior, right?

We know how to maneuver around all the barriers and get to where we're going when everybody is stopped in their tracks. Even having young kids at home (and all that entails) can't keep us off the road.

Well it turns out that maybe there's one thing can make mighty warrior stick around: A new born. Our recent poll indicated that over 80% of us stopped traveling for a full 3 months after the birth of a child. For everybody else, travel paused for a month.

I don't think I've gone 3 months without traveling someplace even right after the kids were born. (I'm in that group that waited a month...or at least I think I am!)

Turns out all that spitting up and messy mess is sticky in more ways than one.

It is unfortunate that travel commitments took you away from your newborns that quickly.

Hi -
I have just come across your site. I’m Stefan from www.diyfather.com and we are an interactive forum for fathers. I was wondering whether or not you would be interested in an article or link exchange. We are also doing a series of podcasts with blogging fathers from around the globe – would you be up for that?
Regards,
Stefan Korn
