[@celesteyeates2412]

We have five kids ages 5 to 17. Our oldest two love saying “Bedtime? What’s that?” when we ask them to go to bed already. Every night. They laugh like they’re so hilarious (they love everything Jim Gaffigan says). It’s only funny when Jim says it, guys.

[@davidcatlin1970]

This routine is the first one I heard of Jim. My sister in law is a midwife, and she and her baby catching friends were taking about how funny this was! My father is one of 18 children. My wife and I have 9. All home births and all alive and healthy! We do know how to do almost anything, but as much as it is a surprise to most we're not Mormon OR Amish, or mennonite, or Catholic.......Lol!

[@toddb930]

This is one of my favorite sets!! Thanks Jim!! " ... ah, I helped too! ..... for like 5 seconds, ...... doing the one thing I think about 24 hours a day." This line, and the description of how amazing a woman is, seriously cracks me up!!

Thank you for not swearing in your monologues! So many comedians think they have too but it really detracts from the funny, for me. If you can be funny for a whole show without dirty jokes and swearing then I am your new fan for life! So thank you for making me laugh, especially right now! It feels good to laugh at things I relate to!

working from home right now. needed the laugh. thanks for this

[@unbeknownstsoul9240]

Hilarious and true. I can't believe how weirded out and upset people get when you say you had a home birth 🙄🤦🏼‍♀️

[@jurjclooners829]

Because the chance of complications that can lead to the child dying or being disabled are much higher in a home birth than in a hospital birth.

[@unbeknownstsoul9240]

@@jurjclooners829 As long as you have a professional midwife and have made sure there are no complications in the womb beforehand(which everyone does when its available, duh), it's quite rare for deaths or mishaps to occur during homebirths. It must be shocking to realize that in countries where homebirths are more of the norm than hospital births, 3rd world countries even, that the majority of births still go smoothly. We free thinking mothers are growing in number and are tired of people who believe you MUST give birth in a hospital, where the nurses & doctors force drugs and c-sections on you when not necessary and believe you should have little say in your birth because "the doctor always knows best." Stop fear mongering. If home birth is SO dangerous, the world population wouldn't have made it to massive numbers it is at now.

[@ahalpert]

@@unbeknownstsoul9240 There are pros and cons. For example, u prob have higher oxytocin in the comfort of ur home. Hospitals use a lot of pitocin, which is artificial oxytocin, and can elevate bp and result in more painful contractions. But after the water breaks the baby has a higher risk of getting an infection. If ur in a hospital they can actually put water back in the amniotic sac and it improves the fetal heart rate.

[@rhelferstay]

@@unbeknownstsoul9240 Home births are the reason the human population is so large? Yeah and it's also the reason the majority of children died at a young age too. Funny how the human population was barely increasing until the last century, aka before hospitals were widespread. The population has grown almost exponentially since the 1950s and why is that you ask???? HOSPITALS AND MODERN MEDICINE! Why do you think parents use to have chickenpox parties? Because children are extremely resilient to viruses and bacteria, and it's much more dangerous to get it in your adult years. Why not expose your child to the possible bacteria and viruses in a hospital so your child has a stronger immune system?

[@unbeknownstsoul9240]

@@rhelferstay Dear lord, its 2020. Home births have evolved drastically. To act like a baby is just as likely to die in a home birth compared to a century ago is ludacris. Away with you sheeple. 🤚🏼🙄

[@StefanTheCannon]

I mean that in a very pandering way and you got applause I spit my drink out laughing 😂 right over the crowds head!

[@CT37BN]

I so like a lot Jim's inner witty and good natured-conscience ( 4:46 - 5:09 ).

[@hooleyqueen]

I gave birth to all three of my children at home, and it was awesome! I had some friends there and fantastic Midwives, except the first one I had a Nerdy Hippie Doctor (yes, Buddy Holly glasses and a ponytail down to the waist.) He was actually a licensed Medical Doctor. They grew up a long time ago 1972, 1980, & 1985 Now I have a 22 year old grandson, and I go out to see Irish Punk Bands. Yes, there is actually no expiration date on having FUN.

@@onemercilessming1342 nah his wife is 50.

[@areyoufriendly]

[@TallSilentGuy]

But just think - given enough time and enough births you'd have the older kids running around cleaning up after the younger kids. The workload would taper off nicely!

[@sbrown8937]

We have 4 now too. We had two kids and we thought we were "done" ...and I think God was like "Gotcha!" And we had 2 more... twin boys! There's really nothing like a Bogo on Mother's Day! 😆

[@mimim7026]

I haven't seen this gig since before I had my son (my-one-and-done). Hits different now! Bedtime has been a crisis every night of his life since that first night in the hospital. I can't imagine having four or five of them.

[@marcus1960ful]

My daughter was born in a hot tub 20 minutes before the Midwife showed up. That was fun...

[@MrsEJV]

mark m My grandson was born at 2:56 a.m, on the bathroom floor. My daughter wasn't sure she was in labor so didn't wake her husband till 2:00. I arrived at 3:00 to take care of the other two kids -- the two ambulances behind me were concerning. Baby was already here. He knew it was his due date! Mostly I was impressed she had enough clean towels. And BTW - who cleaned the bathroom? Yup. Grandmothers are SO underrated.

[@endokrin7897]

@@MrsEJV That's actually impressive. I mean, 100 years ago, that was still the norm for a lot of people, but then ya still had all the death to go along with it. It's definitely an accomplishment to deliver a baby at home.. almost by yourself!
