Let me tell y'all a story:
I had Tennis Elbow back in early 2010. Wife is pregnant so I go to doc about it. Hurt to lift arm etc. He sets me up for Physical Therapy etc.
Wife goes into labor and refuses to have some student nurse (male) in the delivery. That means I have to hold her foot / leg for her to push against while she's delivering my son. She pushed the first time and I thought I was going to pass out from the pain. In a moment of clarity I chose NOT to make mention of how painful it was for ME. Luckily I could rest between pushes and it only took about two.
Women just don't know the struggles of a man.
lol.
My son was born March 23rd. I had gotten up at 3am and gone turkey hunting most of the day pulling hills on Choccolocco. We get ready for bed that night and I’m wore out. I now more lay my head down and my wife hollers to me to grab the bags her water broke. We get ready, call St Vincent’s and jump in the car leaving Anniston to Birmingham. We get checked in and now the adrenaline is wearing off. It’s about 4 am now and she is having contractions. She asks me to stand by the bed and squeeze her hand for counter pressure during contractions. I’m a I to pass out and in my state of delirium I made the mistake of telling her so. A few F bombs later I’m still standing by the bed doing my best to push through. lol. Luckily the nurse came by not much after and gave her the epidural block. So after about 26 hrs of being up I crashed on the couch for a couple hours and got up in time for the delivery.
