People Are Sharing Funny Stories Of How The Delivery Room Experience Was Too Much For New Dads
The days of proud dads waiting in the corridor next to the delivery room, handing out cigars while their wives go into labor, are long gone. Now, you’ll often find dads in the front lines, next to the loves of their lives as they’re about to bring a miracle into the world. They’ll be holding their partners’ hands, saying words of encouragement, and doing everything they can to make giving birth easier.
However, not all dads have the stomach for it. Watching someone give birth can be intense and can make some of them faint and react very strongly in other ways. There’s no shame in that. However, the moms of Twitter had a blast sharing some of the funniest stories about what happened to their beloved men in the delivery room. And the person who kicked off the viral thread is Twitter user theMidwife, the curator of ‘Your Lady Biz.’
Have a read through some of the most lighthearted and wittiest stories below, upvote the ones that you liked the most, and share your own tales from the delivery room if you’re feeling up to it, dear Pandas.

It's Ryan Reynolds. He's kidding! Edited to add: if you don't know who Ryan Reynolds is, he's an actor, known for his comedy. He and his wife routinely roast each other on Twitter. He also has a fake feud with Hugh Jackman, which is all comedy as well.

To be fair, the needle is like 18 inches long, and they basically throw it at you like a lawn dart.

Drink the ginger ale, eat the crackers, and thank the nurses. A lot. (Hint from a nurse's daughter.)

Omg ! My daughter had her son at 27 weeks. She literally farted him out because he was so small. At first she was just laying in bed in labor , and she accidentally farted rather loudly . I was biting my cheek trying so hard to be mature. Then I saw my husband silent laughing out of the corner of my eye. I lost it. I ran into the bathroom in the room and fell over from laughing so hard. My daughter yelled "I can hear you ". When it was time to push She pushed once and the doctor said "ok hold on. Now just give a little cough". She coughed and farted at the same time and out came my tiny grandson.We like to keep it classy

If he almost passed out due to low blood sugar I'd say that was justified.

Women in labor are superwomen. A co-worker saw a woman in labor get out of cab, get a contraction, bend and take two handfuls of bark off an oak tree. I was in doubt until I saw my own wife during a contraction, bend and grab a steel gurney, pick all four wheels 6 inches, and slam it down. The attending resident backed up.

I finished my Christmas shopping while in labor. I'd been in labor for hours and it was going really slowly, so I didn't see a reason to rush to the hospital. Anyway, I worried a lot of strangers.

My husband doesn't get grossed out easily. I went into labor because I caught a stomach bug and was vomiting . As soon as my son came out , my husband ran to the bathroom and threw up. The nurses thought it was hilarious. They thought he was grossed out. Nope he caught the bug. He came out and said "I've been trying not to throw up on you for the past 15 minutes". During my first labor, I sat up to get an epidural and my husband was in front of me holding on to me. My water broke and filled up his shoes. I laughed so hard. He totally didn't care .

My son took ten hours to be born, I've spent the time with my wife, she held my hand, her fingernails left almost scars on my skin, so I took care to cut her nails at the second birth, daughter was born in 45 minutes :-)
