Normal or Whimpy or What??!!

[Gawain 0]

Okay, so my wife is channel surfing and parks the damn TV on Discovery Health, where at lunch time, they're airing a program about natural child birth, mid-wives, water births, etc. They're showing these women, in pain, and HUGE baby bodies coming out of delicate, small orifices...it absolutely makes me shudder. I can't watch it.

The missus immediately started teasing me and said, "Oh, so you can watch blood-n-guts-violent movies, but you can't watch such a beautiful event." To which, I replied, "I'm the type of guy that will pass out in the hallway, I hope you don't expect me to watch that in real life...I won't make it."

So, guys, gals, whomever, what's the story here. I had no problem looking at my own leg before I lost it, and I've had no problem seeing the other guys' wounds who've been torn up in combat, but watching that stuff on TV???!!! ugh...

So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright
'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
Make light!

a. yes, you're a big pussy
b. when (and if, obviously) the time comes for you to do the right thing (which is to BE THERE), you'll find that you have no problem doing it.

At least that's what my son's father discovered. He'd promised ahead of time that there was NO WAY, but there he was, like a trouper, doing all of exactly the right things.

Very normal, try wanting to forget that scene when youre just about to eat her. (figuratively speaking)

I bet you can't press on with much fortitude.

You know I'm not getting a whole lotta love here from the guys...this poll ain't going the way I hoped it would. I think some guys are afraid to step up to the plate...

Whimp

The first natural child birth I experienced... I had no problem watching the birth, but when I watched that needle inserted into the spine, I nearly passed out.

You'll be fine, really you will!!!

I helped catch my son as he FLEW out. The Doc damn near dropped him. Once the head starts to move through the doc slid her hands in to make an air pocket. I guess that's all he needed cause he flew out of there fast. I grew up on a farm so I had seen PLENTY of all sorts of animals born. I've had the disgusting job all too many times of gathering up the horse placenta to make sure it all came out OK. I wasn't really grossed out watching. It happened pretty fast. However, I have to say that it did leave a bit of a mental scar. I never quite looked at that particular "entertainment center" the same again.

I was in the delivery room when my daughter was born (At least for a while, They did eventually throw me out.).

The first mistake I made was I brought a Catchers Mitt in with me. Somehow my ex just didn’t find it any where as amusing as I did when I Squatted behind the Doctor slapping the Mitt yelling "Put ‘er here!!".

Then when the Doc had her Entire hand Up to about the Elbow up the Ally checking something or other, I said something the effect of "She always gets pissed at me when I try to do that!!". Again.. Something about child birth just kills her since of Humor.

Then as my beautiful daughter was Born, Wiped off, Wrapped up and handed to me.. It was then that I noticed that she was BLUE!! (I didnt know they all came out that way and after a few minutes the color gets more normal) So I Looked down at my Ex that was breathing a sigh of relief and Sternly asked "Is there something you want to tell me about a Smerf??"..

That was it for me. The doctor kicked me out at that point. Some people just dont have a since of humor!!

Of course as they are removing me out the room, I did remember to ask the doc is she wouldn’t mind throwing in a Courtesy Stick or two when she fixed the slight tearing.

The first part of my daughter to emerge was her HAND. I put my finger in her palm, and she GRABBED it!

Then the midwife knocked me out of the way so she could "fix" things. Lots of screaming followed.

It's a sight to be seen by all fathers.

During Lamaze class, there is a birth video.

We were watching it and heard a muted Thump in the back of the class. Some guy had passed out and was on the carpeted floor.

They asked me if I wanted to be in the delivery room.
I told them that I had hired a more qualified person called a doctor.

I was in the delivery room for the birth of both my children. They both came by C-section though. It was more like watching the scene from Alien than anything else. They leave them sitting halfway in while they do some clearing and cleaning. I was waiting for them to scamper off and lay a jaw lock on some good looking nurse down the hallway. I got pics since they still let me bring the camera in then. You are right though very little sense of humor at some of the comments I made at the time

I'm a wimp about my wife and kids. ANyone else, bring it on, but I'm a wimp about those close to me.

This is why before my sone was born I made my wife PROMISE that she'd ask for an epidural at 4.5. She had been shown the videos that showed comatose newborns (those are from narcotic pain relief), paralyzed newborns (from epidurals) and then smiling newborns doing differential equations (from natural childbirth) and started thinking she could push it.

I told her, "Look. Take a look at any crowd and NOBODY can identify natural vs. epidural vs. morphine. If you don't do it for yourself, do it for me. DO NOT MAKE ME GO THROUGH YOU NEEDLESSLY GOING THROUGH THAT."

It so happened that the contractions were really kicking in at abotu 4.5. I reminded her and she was ready.

It turned into an exceedingly pleasant day! It's so nice when she just gave birth without exhaustion and agony. It became so damned nice!

No, I didn't cut the cord. The doctor is getting paid good money for that - let her do it.

Same thing happened last month, only this time Erin was looking forward to the epidural. Sure, she doesn't have an award on her wall for having gone through "natural childbirth." That's okay, since they don't give awards for that.

Why the hell would anyone want to go through an hours-long medical procedure without anesthetic? Those are the ones they always show.

My wife is hotter than your wife.

I was out at sea when my daughter was born, but the above is the main reason I would absolutely not want to see that particular part of the process. I could probably be in the room, but my eyes would not wander south of her chin.

Edit to add: As for the guy who's wife had two C-sections...lucky guy! And I'd totally be interested in watching that type of delivery.

not many events in life come anywhere remotely close to cutting the cord and catching your own child when they pop fresh out of the oven.

I've cut and caught three!
It's watching the doc put his entire FUCKING ARM back in to help the afterbirth along that got me...and the episiotomy ain't pretty either.

Although I agree that violence is an accepted male acceptance, the delicate little thing we call a Pussy should not be viewed by guys while being that streched out.

The feelings that you are feeling are natural. The male psyche is constantly in competition mode, and all men want to be able to give everything and waste nothing. If a pussy will strech like that and we can't strech it with what we like to put in it, it logically stands to reason that something is being wasted or neglected to be done right.

Furthermore, your dedication and your fervent desire to stay with and please your wife, is admirable. It is my conclusion that it is the inner battle of the desire to fulfill and comply with the most possible that conflicts with the knowledge that you will never be able to do that yourself that is causing the undesireable, and uncomfortable feelings.

A simple solution for you is as follows: When the time comes that the streching of the pussy is immenent, simply get yourself to the nearest establishment that serves Tequila.(Preferably on similar to the Pink Pony) This will, at least momentarily, filter and diminish all thoughts about inadequacies. If a "Titee" bar is not available in the near reigon, a sports bar, although taking a bit more tequila, will sufficiently dull the imiges cousing you discomfort.

You feel that you aren't doing something right during sex because she isn't in pain and asking for an epidural or morphine?

No. That is not what I typed.

I was just kidding. Anyways, I have never had a child so my opinion counts much less if at all. I would not want to see it for the reasons mentioned above regarding future flashbacks.

I should hope so - Can you imagine - fanasizing about child birth as you give her the big Pookie Bear?

No dude I am with you on that one.
I can take a lot but not that stuff. Just tell me when the kid is out and cleaned up. I do not want to cut the cord or any of that stuff.

Actually I went out and got my ex a Extra Large Scillian Pizza with everything when they booted me. Less than an Hour after Birth, My ex ate the entire thing. (She forgave me when I showed up with the Pizza)

But I still had a few questions about Smerfs.
