They were sewing me up after the C-section, and I was in that awkward state of being super happy and weirded out. I said, “Just pop a zipper on there, it’ll be a safe place to keep my passport when I’m traveling.” © elle5624 / Reddit
In between pushes, my husband knelt in front of me and told me I was doing a great job and was so strong. I opened my eyes and said, “Yeah. Your body could never.” © happyrainyday / Reddit
This happened following a 55-hour labor that ended in an emergency C-section and a 9 lb, 15 oz baby boy. My wife was obviously beyond exhausted (I was also pretty tired, but not in the same galaxy as what she went through). Our kid had to spend a day in the NICU, and when they finally brought him to us, it was the middle of the night, and she could barely stay awake. As I held our huge son for the first time in that dark hospital room, I heard my wife say, “I should let you know, I had an affair...” And then nothing. My mind raced trying to comprehend what she had just said. Why she had waited until now. Was this child even mine? About 15 seconds of dark silence passed, and I heard, “... with a giant.” She had fallen asleep halfway through her joke. Which, I believe, made it that much funnier. © CouldStopDidStop / Reddit
My partner very kindly told me, "She’s coming out,’ as I pushed our daughter’s head out. It’s the only time I snapped at him through 18 hours of labor and yelled, “I KNOW SHE IS.” © jayclay88 / Reddit
At one point during delivery, my obstetrician said that my son was a bit stuck. I said, “Well, you put him in there doc, so you need to get him out.” Room went quiet for a bit until my partner quickly explained that our son was conceived using this doctor’s IVF clinic. © MyDarcy / Reddit
