People Are Sharing Funny Stories Of How The Delivery Room Experience Was Too Much For New Dads

Aaaw!! So sweet!

As a man who never wants kids, this guy is still my hero.

That is adorable.

Bad. Ass.

Funny and loving hubby eh?!

Lol who's here to comfort who?

So sweet

Toooooooo sweet

Brilliant 😆

When my dad went in for his third child's birth by C section, the doctor told him that if dad fainted, they wouldn't be paying attention to him until the cleaning lady hit him with her mop! 😆 Dad said, "I told him, yessir, and stayed by her head the whole time! No looking!"

One of the Dads I knew from when I taught preschool admitted to this when his oldest was born. His wife was expecting their second child, and he was really NOT looking forward to being in the delivery room again. What killed me is that he was a this big, muscular guy - and a former Navy SEAL in the bargain.

What I don't understand is that if you're squeamish, then why are you putting yourself in that situation? Why would you coerce your partner into this? I've seen this the vets as well when you were still allowed to watch certain surgical procedures. Big burly men insisting on watching, then passing out. It's a huge health and safety risk and a major liability.

When I started passing out in the labor room the nurse said if you're going to react like that I'd rather not have you in my delivery room. And with that, off I went to the waiting room and smoked a pack of cigarettes. (Lots of rooms and a long, long, time ago...)

LMAOOOOO

Don't mean to crash the party but why is your "Girlfriend" giving birth?Aren't you suppose to get married first?

I snorted

In fairness, a lot of people have that reaction in those moments after birth. Hollywood it ain't. It's icky.

It'll be a great family story for years to come!

Don't touch the alien 😅😅

That's so funny!

I’m dying 🤣

I am laughing so damned hard.

lol he was probably laughing too

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

A little strategic fuzzing of the background coming up!

There's a technique in Photoshop where you can selectively Gaussian Blur the background. Time consuming, and yecch, but it would work for some of them.

Well, at least he caught you 'birthing something!' LOLOL!!

Photoshop!!

Aaaaand that’s why they have “stickers” to put over images in the background or faces of those who shouldn’t be identified

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.

This is hilarious!

You think YOU'RE the hero? Wow.

I think it was meant as a joke to take her out of the moment.

I'm glad the nurse said that, so the mom didn't have to answer. I get that it's a joke, but it's such an intense and painful moment for her body, there's no need to be annoying and make bad jokes. Read the room, please. Think about what you say in a moment like this.

Maybe it's just me but didn't find it funny or inappropriate.

Bad timing for a joke like that

He was joking. The nurse has no sense of humor

Sitcom moment

I snorted!

Reminds me of my first, he just kept telling me to breath, breath. I looked at him and said if you tell me to breath one more f******g time, I am going to lose it. He was like I can't handle this right now. He was walking out as the guy was walking in to give me my epidural . He said give a half hour, and I promise she will be better. And I was! 38 hours of labor

That's when you have to get a cup of tea, soda or coffee and sit in a nice chair then so "Why do you think I asked?".

Aww I want someone whos able to make me laugh during a contration lol
