Like every man, of course, I had no understanding of how a labor pain really feels. Carol Burnett said, �If you want to know the feeling, just take your bottom lip and pull it over your head.�
-Bill Cosby

But I have heard that all the pain goes away when you can see the child.

anyone can't imagine how awful that pain would be! when I was an interne, working in a hospital, I saw many lying-in women twisting their bodies and screaming out loud in delivery room. I just felt upset, their screaming fiercely tortured my nerve and brain!

But when that moment came to me (I mean, labor), I found those lying-in women were very reasonable when they screamed!

and Bob, you are so funny I never heard anyone take his bottom lip and pull it over his head. that's a funny metaphor.

VMVM, you are right, when we see baby, we would immediately forget about that pain

In my parents' time, the father was expected to wait in the hospital waiting room while his wife gave birth. Today it is expected that the father will be in the delivery room with the mother. Even so, the man's job is SOOO easy! All I have to do is say "breathe, honey, breathe! Now push! Push! Push!"

In China, man is still not allowed to enter into the delivery room until his baby comes to the world. I think Americans do the right thing. men should share women's pain and get to know how awful it is to give birth. that way men can take care of women more.
