So let's chat then!!

Here's what we're doing: We've taken on an existing dad-related Slack group called SlackDads as the official chat partner of r/predaddit!

SlackDads' organizer jonathan is a member here at r/predaddit (under the handle u/YuppyFarmer), and is excited to offer us a realtime chat home. They have channels for lots of post-predad topics too, and many full-bird-dad members who can offer advice from the other side.

To join, go to http://www.slackdads.com and request an invitation. The invitation email will walk you through setting up Slack if you don't already use it.

Our strong suggestion is that you register with the same username that you use to post here, so everyone can tell who's who.

You'll find a channel called #predaddit (among others like #dadadvice and #dadsport and #dadtech).

Much thanks to u/raustin33 for bringing SlackDads to my attention!

Just had our first new baby born to a Dad on SlackDads since we started a few days ago!

How long is the wait for an invitation?

Should be within an hour so, unless I am asleep! If you are waiting drop me a PM

Quick, right? I see you there within like a couple minutes of this post.

Yeah, I totally didn't read the tagline on SlackDads about waiting an hour or two. Hopefully the lack of reading comprehension will go away before the baby gets here.

He's processing them manually. Which means he's quick when he's quick, and he's not when he's not.

How active is the pre-daddit bit? I'll sign up when I get home.

Pretty active. Depends who's on, but there appear to be a few regulars who, like me, have Slack open most of the time anyway.
