It would seem to me that it is very troublesome to have a child. So why complain and still do it (repeatedly afterwards)?

to quote my wife, "It was not so bad at all." She basically said that the pain is instant, and forgotten soon after. Especially when you hold your baby, she said it really nullifies any pain. Even long after pergnancy.Quote:

...I can't even think of a way to reply to this. -_- Although, what Leeza and Sammie said was good.
Your wife is one of the lucky ones if her pain was instant. I know a few women like that. Others are not so lucky. Like I said before, I had 22 hours of contraction pains before having to have an emergency C-section. I had nightmares about it for months afterwards and would wake up feeling the pain all over again. My 10 pound half ounce daughter was worth it all though.Quote:

yeah it's a moment of pain but then it desappears! :D And the result is worth! :)
Ignore the haters Devil Man! I still love you!
It's like ripping off a bandaid, only it's not a bandaid and it's coming out of your uterus slowly and painfully. So, I guess it's more like tearing out your eyeballs.

But seriously, I don't consider it the worst pain that humans can suffer. It's definitely high ranking, though, and I feel extraordinarily lucky that I'm a bloke.
I don't know about it "being not so bad", but it is easy to forget usually. Nothing beats the feeling of looking into your eyes and seeing a tiny hand with your fingers grasping your gargantuan finger.Quote:

What Leeza went through is awful and I hate hearing women talk about having bad birth experiences. But again, in her own words, it is worth it...:)
This thread has been pretty informative, and slightly amusing and most of all, it's put me off having kids more than I already was. XD I don't want that paaain. *scared* X_X
Someone told me it's comparable to [img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img] out a brick.
I said that, but with a fridge instead of a brick.
Or days. My mother suggested against them because she couldn't walk without help for two days. I've never had one but they gave me all the pain killers they could beside that and they did nearly squat. You would have thought I was a crack head. "I want more drugs! When can I have more?"Quote:

...and that is why I wasn't the slightest bit interested in having children until I meet a man I wanted to have them with. IMO any female who fools around is an idiot who needs her head checked.Quote:
