Just thinking about what someone told me today about giving birth feeling very much like pushing a bowling ball out of your ass.

I dunno Mike, there seems to be a consensus amongst the ladies here 🀣 the only variation being the object - watermelon or bowling ball πŸ«‚

Why doesn’t anyone ever tell you this stuff 🀣😭 genuinely thought they were taking the piss at first
I was told that evolution has made mothers forget the pain of child birth so they are not put off having more kids. Live streaming from the delivery room may bypass that genetic adaption πŸ˜‚
There's real anatomy behind that comparison. As the baby's head moves lower into the pelvis it presses on the rectum, and stretch receptors in the rectal wall read that pressure as rectal fullness, which is the exact signal that triggers the urge to push. So the sensation is your body doing what it was wired to do.
Wait until you hear post-partum stories πŸ‘€πŸ˜‚. It's all such a haze of new baby warm and fuzzies after a while, I had to have a caesarean with Jr so I don't know about ass bowling balls. You got this, you are one tough mother πŸ«‚πŸ’œ

See this one I’ve had a little time to reconcile with πŸ€£πŸ˜­πŸ’― I asked my mum if she ever had this happen with me or my brothers and she said she never did, but an old friends sister did - a lot πŸ‘€πŸ˜­
I ask every single mom I meet because it’s funny to me and a lot of them say they don’t know and don’t careπŸ˜‚ cuz you’re so out of it ya know. If I ever get to give birth, I’m def gonna ask 🀭
My sister didn't know she did let out a little (not on the baby, but immediate post-birth). My mom saw it and a nurse assistant went after it and cleaned it right off of her and the table before anyone scarcely realized it.
Don't feel bad if it doesn't happen for you. It's our job as men to get in there and poop on that baby if our woman needs us. Also, look for the men in the brown striped shirts. A lot of hospitals employ these "poopystripers" to go door to door pooping on any babies that might have missed out. πŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺ

We'd been married for around 6 years and together like 13 total, so he was used to my crazy πŸ˜‚. That said, I think I threw him for some loops with the pregnancy hormones...the crying over my sausage mcmuffin from McDonalds because it didn't have an egg on it was pretty wild. He was great, he's my best friend and it was such a fun time πŸ₯ΉπŸ’œ

Oh no πŸ«‚πŸ«‚πŸ«‚ to say that there were never any tears would be lying, but communication is what makes it work. Don't be afraid to say what you need and what you want, it took me too long to figure that out with my very patient man. You will figure it all out, it's what we do! If I could hug your neck and cry with you, I would πŸ«‚πŸ’œπŸ₯Ή I'll be thinking about you and sending all the positive energies your way sweet lady.
