[@skaftonmd8916]

Well, that's really because there's no such thing as a birthing simulator. What they are using in the video (and in all of these labor pain simulation videos online) is a TENS unit - which stimulations motor (and sensory) nerves. We actually use these to help treat chronic pain. When placed in a certain area, the unit can stimulate motor nerves to cause muscle contractions (which is what happens in labor). However, to some people, this may not actually cause pain - it may feel like a small shock or tickle. Others who are sensitive to muscle pain may feel pain like a bad cramp. There is no way to stimulate the same muscles in a male to really simulate the pain of labor contractions.

[@brianv9242]

I’ve never seen Michael laugh so much at once 😂

[@yugiyasha7769]

Biologically speaking I would assume that the tickling sensation came from the fact that the stimulus was external and the electricity was having to pass through the nerves of the skin vs. originating from the internal nerves of the abdomen. As you can tell I'm a science nerd so if someone else knows better where that sensation comes from, let me know!

[@muchadoaboutkovu]

I think you are spot on. A woman’s body has to do so many things to get ready for the baby that is trying to get out. Hormones are changing rapidly to trigger contractions and allow the hips to be ready for a human being to get out etc. It’s way more extreme than being zapped on your abdomen.👍

[@antonia6059]

These labor simulators are always funny to watch. But I don’t believe for a minute, that it’s anywhere near what giving birth is like. And I worry it’s going to make the men who try it have less empathy for their wives. They’d have to do it for 18 hours and then there’s the whole pushing a person out part. I think there are some types of suffering that men and woman endure that the other will never really understand.

[@PhantomMonkey2008]

If the men have less empathy for their wives after being stimulated electrically, the were likely not empathetic before either.

[@beckywalker9450]

Yeah, I was in labor for like 8 hours before I realized I was even having contractions. If it's "tickling", it's not an accurate simulation, not even close. I have an extremely high pain tolerance and am also very ticklish, and no part of contractions tickles.

[@debbiestidham7343]

I don't tell people this very often because I know most women go through a lot when giving birth. I don't know if it's a pain tolerance thing or what but my first five labors we're very easy. My last child, number six, was a little more intense and I didn't know why. I got up to use the bathroom and started giggling with every contraction. When I got back to the room I asked the nurse to call my doctor and my husband because I was in transition (my transitions were usually about 20 minutes). She said, Oh honey if you were in transition you wouldn't be walking, talking and giggling. I told her this was my sixth and this is how I do it. She said she needed to check me first and as soon as she did, she ran out and made the calls. Luckily they weren't too far away because they barely got there in time. Turns out it was back labor which I had never experienced before but I'd say that was what was happening with Michael. 😂

[@muchadoaboutkovu]

I have a very high pain tolerance but mine were extremely painful near the end. The contractions are constant with no break and feel like my organs are all contracting with my uterus. I believe the different experiences women have is based on how they are built and how your body reacts to being pregnant and giving birth. Mine wants to tear me apart from the inside. But as soon as the baby is out the pain is completely gone. And I get very high from the oxytocin that releases after giving birth. I got yelled at by the nurse because I tried to get up minutes after my first baby was born and she was telling me I just lost a lot of blood and I could pass out. Didn’t phase me at all😂

Where's the baby tho?

Until he gets to feel the sensation of needing to poop and puke at the same time, he does not know. Until he tears-down through muscle- from his genitals to his butt hole, he does not know.

As a woman, I am convinced that these birth pain/cramp “stimulators” don’t actually accurately simulate the real thing, because I see so many men laugh hysterically while trying them. So they can’t actually be accurate lol. But also, how is it I’ve been listening to/watching Michael Knowles for years and years and have never seen this gem?! Seeing him laughed this hard like a little child was ✨healing for my soul✨

If nobody knew that Michael was being electrocuted with the labor simulator during this questioning session , they would just think he was completely insane. lol
