It's so cool to see. The head comes out so slowly but then once the shoulders are out, the baby just pops right out. Amazing.
I'm a bit squeamish, so I arranged myself so as to be seated basically next to my wife's head, facing the wall, and was laser focused on holding her hand and maintaining eye contact with her.
Meanwhile, the delivering doctor was narrating a play by play as our kid went from just barely crowning to head fully out in three contractions, and then she just had to maneuver his shoulder free and he popped out on the fourth push. Three random things I will never forget from that night:
Overall, 10/10, never doing it ever again.
I watched it on youtube once. "So cool" is about the last descriptor I would use. "Disgusting", and "fuckin nasty" are some of the words that came out of my mouth during that video.
I think you've got the glow of parenthood on that memory.
Did she poop? I remember watching one on YouTube while eating a banana and the lady pooped herself while pushing
Still ate the banana
Actually no, she did not. I had thought we all pooped when we gave birth but nope. Now I'll have to wonder forever if I pooped or not.
This guy likes his banana.. almost too much
Its different whwn its your own family
Nah, it was my friend's kid. I was there to support her. I've been the one giving birth before and it was just a blur of screaming and pain, but from the other side it was so cool. I'm not squeamish with blood and stuff so I could just focus on the fact that an entire person just popped out of my friend. What the fuck.
