Wow!! What great news and in time for holidays.

I know some do not like it when we post off-topic threads -- yet we share a common bond far deeper than just having sleep apnea. We become friends and in many cases like family to one another.

I think this is a great place to share both truimphs and tragedy! In the triumphs we remember that we can overcome and move forward. When tragedy strikes it helps to know you have a support system that does care!!

THANKS FOR POSTING THIS KENNY!!!! Congratulations to all three of you!!

Congratulations! You, your wife, and your baby will be in my prayers!

Too true! However, you have one thing to your advantage. You are already using xPAP, so you will both sleep better and have more energy to help mom and the baby.

The other advantage? You won't be snoring so loudly it will disturb them! No, seriously. I knew I needed to have a sleep study when my snoring got really, really bad. How bad can it get? Well, one night I snored so loudly that my children woke SCREAMING! Now, that's when you know your snoring is a bit louder than normal.

Seriously, you will be sleep deprived. But you will sleep better because of xPAP therapy than wihtout.

So, grace and peace be with you, your wife and your baby!

Kenny,
I am so happy for your family news. Babies are a true miracle, and I will continue to keep you in prayers for a wonderful pregnancy and a beautiful healthy baby in July 2010.
Give that beautiful wife of yours a hug and a cup of tea.

Merry Christmas

Karen
