“Who says fathers have it easy during childbirth? Recent viral images of a couple welcoming their third child reveal that fathers can be deeply worried and often astounded by the delivery process.
In the past, fathers were barred from entering the delivery room, left to wait outside and hope for the best for both mother and child. Nowadays, dads are expected to witness the entire delivery, sometimes resulting in amusing reactions, as seen with Amanda Renee and her partner Brett Sillis.
The couple’s delivery room photos have touched many, not only because they welcomed their third baby, but also due to Brett’s priceless facial expressions.
While Brett’s reactions might seem like he is repulsed by the birthing process, Amanda assures he wasn’t. She didn’t notice her husband’s expressions during the overwhelming experience of childbirth. It wasn’t until they reviewed the photos later that they realized how funny Brett’s expressions were.
“We didn’t even look at them until I got back into the room, and I was like, ‘I have to post these,’” Amanda shared.
Now, the happy couple and their baby girl are home, enjoying time together and laughing at Brett’s delivery room expressions.
The photos resonated with many, especially men who related to Brett’s reactions, garnering over 6,000 shares.
“Dawg, this was me,” wrote one father.
“And this is exactly why when my husband wanted to ‘watch,’ I clamped my knees together and told him if he didn’t get up by my head, I wasn’t going to push!” shared one mother.
“Lol! I believe all men make these faces. My spouse could only look at my face after we delivered our baby six weeks ago. My labor lasted 15 minutes, and my doula had to tap him to get him to look at the baby because he was afraid he’d pass out from all the ‘stuff’ coming out. ‘Congratulations, mama!’” commented another.
Congratulations to the happy couple on their new family member!”
Graduation: A Celebration for All
Imagine the excitement of graduating college and having Jerry Seinfeld as your commencement speaker. For most Duke graduates, it was an incredible moment. However, some chose to walk out during his address simply because he is a Jewish comedian. This protest was ironic, as they missed a unique opportunity to hear from a famous actor critical of left-wing, politically correct nonsense.
The majority of students cheered for Seinfeld. Walking out on such an event was seen by many as silly and disrespectful. Even if you don’t find him funny, it’s important to respect your college and fellow graduates. Graduation is a celebration for everyone, not just a small group of protesters.
By walking out, the protesters not only ruined their own experience but also disrupted the ceremony for others. All because they didn’t like the speaker? After years of hard work, the least they could do is stay for an hour and contribute to making the ceremony special for everyone.
