Very pregnant wife going to Oregon State game with me, any special accommodations at the Big House?
Any other Mgodads have had experiences at a game with a pregnant wife and if any special accommodations were made? I figured I'd just chat with the usher when we got to our section, but would be great to know if there any special services she might be privy to. Thanks.

One of my sons is one of the ER residents, although he hasn't learned how to deliver babies yet, but he claims to be good with concussions.
Relax...she will be fine,

I'm not a doctor, so I can't vouch for how medically sound this would be, but it would be amazing to have your kid born at the Big House during a game.

It will get hot and if she doesn't get enough fluid in her system, she will cramp up and be miserable. She may not feel it at the game, but by that evening, she'll feel it. Me and my wife have gone through for of these pregnancies and each doctor has advocated for staying hydrated.
Yeah it sucks with all the frequent bathroom stops, but that's the price you'll have to pay to keep her and the baby comfortable.

Only advice I have is to say hang on to that trooper! My wife was great during late pregnancy but if I had suggested a football game, I think she would've gone Lorena Bobbitt on me.

Just a suggestion.
Though don't tell the wife I brought it up. I don't need that 3rd trimester insanity on me. Also don't mention I said "insanity."

Take a buddy and rely on the great cell towers our friend David Brandon installed in case you need to bail on the game

It wasn't the hormones for my wife as much as it was the nausea. Naw strike that. It was the hormones and the nausea. After month 4, my wife wanted to get some more than before she was pregnant. I guess the dad ought to get something out of this.

At least once the baby comes out you can have your life back. Eventually. Maybe.

That's the great part of having those old timers as ushers. Cool story.

Though I'm not taking her, she would welcome a long walk like that to tell that little boy to get moving. She is ready for birth day.

We were in the same situation last season. Go to the crisler ticket booth a couple hours before the game, hand them your normal tickets, they will hand you tickets in ADA seating in your same section. So for us, this meant sitting in a folding chair at the top of section 20 with all the space in the world, and easy access to bathrooms.

I'd call the Ticket Office today.

Perhaps Ghost Of Hoke will change his mind when he personally witnesses two C-sections, which is how both of my kids arrived. I am always open to describing the experience for people who would like a summary or play-by-play.
To Ghost Of Hoke, don't be that person - that's how some people around here end up with "Ghost Of" as part of their name.

to the epidural gods!

I took a few weeks off of work to take care of the baby so my wife could heal from the c-section, but the recovery was a bitch. He was a 10 pounder though, so natural wasn't really an option.

this will get your son/daughter to arrive on game day, or maybe game night.
trust me, i know what i'm talking about. ever been snow-shoeing with an 8.99 month preggers wife? dashes on the beach (different child, great quote that day, 'mama can move the mail!) i have. great fun, seriously. kudos to your bride for the great attitude. suggest you sit as close to the aisle and the exit as you can, swap tickets with others if you have to. i love that crisler/ADA suggestion above.

When the kid pops out at halftime, make sure you name him (or her) Harbaugh.
