@@nollypolly1869 So he was harmed twice, first during the making of the video and then after showing it to his wife? I just want to clarify how Many times he was harmed.
@@LindaPerry_337 Don't forget the moment it all happened. The video must have been traumatizing to go through that all over again, but the actual life changing moment, that damage was done, needs to be recognized.
I had a c-section for a grade 4 placenta previa. The hospital used my operation as a teaching exercise. I lost 1.5 litres of blood and the surgeon got applauded at the end. My story pales in comparison to the trauma you suffered 😂
This just came up in my recommended videos so I didn't know he's from New Zealand (I thought he was Australian tbh), that kinda explains why his manner of storytelling reminded me so much of 'What We Do in the Shadows' :)
My hubby had it pretty tough with each of our 4 kids.. I hate being touched when in labor so he was there solely to be the ice chip boy. I would just turn my face to him, grunt, and open my mouth. He had pretty good aim but heaven help him if he missed that flick of ice. He's been traumatized ever since. There really needs to be a voice for the birthing partners in the world and I'm thrilled you're bringing awareness to the subject. #PartnersLaborToo God bless you, Sir.
brought me to tears for like five times during video.. I had to take some breaks because I wasn't emotionally strong enough to watch it in one sitting! you're very very strong.
After 5 hours of pushing my husband (now ex-) muttered, “Boy, do my feet hurt..” A hush fell over the room. I’m sure it was a sympathetic moment of commiseration from new dads everywhere.
You sir....are the bravest man I know! And telling your story, and making it public, will really help others who are too ashamed (very wrongly) about the trauma they went through. I was WEEPING at the end of this. Kudos to you sir, kudos!
This content is golden. My hubs definitely felt this one lmao. I mean it was only 2 dislocated fingers but anyone would of thought he was pushing a human out of his body 😂😂😂 love this.
I remember my mum saying that during her labour with me my dad was turning grey and they had to offer him a glass of water. I feel your pain. We women have had it too easy for too long.
Anna McCaughey - I don't think that would have happened, seeing as that was the precursor of the tragic events that _How to Dad_ recounted in this video.
Never Ever Ever listen to these Dad's stories as I'm drinking my morning coffee! Let's talk about equal rights for my computer screen, now! You made my day, mate! Thank you ^^ (Hi to all your family from France)
You have hope! Equality is creeping in! When I was doing my thing and there weren’t any staff in the room I offered my husband some of the gas to share. Helped him a lot. Actually helped him a little too much, he felt all giddy. Weird, because it was barely taking the edge off for me. But it’s a start.
Wow thank you for sharing this. As a woman who gave birth twice I feel so bad and I am so sorry to my husband for not supporting him twice. He should divorce me
We really need more brave men like you to come forward and talk about their child birth pain more often. It’s all to easy to forget how hard it is for us, while she just lays there on that comfy bed.
OMG who started laughing at "I had sore feet sore ankles" LOL well done! Such an appropriate video for 2019. #DadStruggles #NeedyPeopleof2019 #DadDiffies
As someone who's epidural wore off while I was pushing and I started screaming "I'M PRETTY SURE I'M DYING!!" my story pales in comparison to your heroic journey. Respect 👊🏼
Thank you for your video . I have due date of our first baby in just one month and I haven’t think so far about how hard It is for dad 😊. I promise I will not push his hand so hard when the D day comes and prepare some snack and panadol in advance for him 😉
Oh that’s sad you felt ignored. Without the men the woman wouldn’t be in that sort of comfort you described . I really hope they do sort something out. I recall my brother sleeping on the floor when my sister in law had her baby. It’s a distressing time for both parties. Plus no one enjoys seeing their loved ones in pain . It make you suffer too. Great video, God bless you
Wow. Thank you for sharing your touching story with us. :'( Your wife is so lucky, I hope she realises that and treats you well. Poor you, had to struggle through so much ;_;
At first when I saw the title, I thought that you’d talk about *your* childbirth experience. Like what it was like to be pushed out ^^’ You’ve got my deepest compassion on the actual content. Now I know of the hardships my partner went through.
