My hubby had it pretty tough with each of our 4 kids.. I hate being touched when in labor so he was there solely to be the ice chip boy. I would just turn my face to him, grunt, and open my mouth. He had pretty good aim but heaven help him if he missed that flick of ice. He's been traumatized ever since. There really needs to be a voice for the birthing partners in the world and I'm thrilled you're bringing awareness to the subject. #PartnersLaborToo God bless you, Sir.

Actually helped him a little too much, he felt all giddy. Weird, because it was barely taking the edge off for me. But it’s a start.

I hear you man. Men's childbirth experience is not understood properly and is generally swept under the carpet. But what's this I hear, they didn't give you any that gas thing? Luckily the nurse during my childbirth was so thoughtful that I got to sniff some gas. It was a blessing. I don't know how else I would have made it through.
