>Another tangent - do you ever really feel ready for the baby? Last night my wife told me she had an odd feeling and for a second I thought it was time. I had a moment of pure panic.

Seriously, Mike, don't worry about it. There probably aren't many dads who feel ready. We worry that we're too selfish, or think about what we will be giving up. Then the second you see him or her the first time that thought is gone forever. Then you're ready. That's it.
