Anecdote of Labour (ouch!) by Linda Munday Aaahh! Labour the very thought of it makes all mothers groan But when remembering hubby's "help" I really had to phone To tell you how he showed himself to nurse and doctor like That he had never done a class on birthing little tike I screamed in pain, with each tight grip and hub began to sweat I told him I was sick of this This kid has got to get! He tried to help the best he could But had no ideas in store So I simply got of birthing bed and placed both feet on floor "I'm going home, I'll see you there" I said between the grips But then a shocking tidal wave proceeded from my hips He grabbed my arm and pulled me back and said that he loved me "What can I do? What do you want? There really has to be a better way to handle this and end your pain so keen So I yelled between my gritted teeth "I want the pethedine!!" He nodded once and yelled for doc responding in his role Doctor, Doctor please come quick "She wants a panadol!!!" |

You are right about that, they dont get it.. and they dont have to go through it .... This was based on a friend of mine and her real experience.. i was there with her in the labour room... she really did just want to leave and not do the job...lol As if???  |
