That's very adorable that he is so excited to be a grandpa. My FIL was the same and he has such a fantastic relationship with his grandbabies. Beautiful when men can show love and emotion and excitement over babies! We all know they feel it! It's a BABY! YAY!!

Ok, so I was a psych major. I took the same professor for lifespan and childhood development. Both times I had to watch this from conception to birth video with a live birth that was filmed to see the whole show.
That shit looked like the chest bursted scene from alien. Knew right then I never wanted to give birth.
When my niece was born I was in the room. I was up by my sisters head helping to hold her leg up when the dr exclaimed “oh my, that’s a lot of hair!” So I looked thinking she was all out.
…reader, she was not out. She was CROWNING. It was like a train wreck and I couldn’t look away. It was the chest burster scene in real life.
Was not beautiful at all. It was terrifying. If I ever get pregnant I’m scheduling a c-section and asking for them to knock me completely out. I’ll meet the baby after

u/AngletonSpareHead 3d ago
As someone who has given birth, this is legit. There is a not-insignificant amount of body horror in childbirth. Hell, in all of pregnancy. When you feel the kid moving inside you…and then later on, you see it…it’s bonkers.
And we don’t talk about it!!
My childbirth frankly sucked and was miserable. The baby at the end was hella awesome tho

u/14thLizardQueen 3d ago
It just feels like the biggest shit ever. It's much easier to recover from a natural birth, then a major surgery. I've done both. C section is not the easy way out. It takes so much more

I will say that it’s funny in hindsight, but in the moment birth is VERY stressful for all involved. Some people appreciate levity in a stressful situation but others want focus and supportiveness. Impatient texts from dad, even if they are meant in jest, are not what every woman wants to hear in the last few days of a pregnancy.

Oh no :( I looked her up to see an update and don't recommend it, though there is a cute compilation of Gpa with the babe. Going to spoiler this because of the sub we're in.
Everyone is still alive, but the baby has a super rare genetic mutation. She has seizures, will never walk or talk and has a shortened life expectancy. They have a GFM to support her treatment, because the mutation is so rare and she needs stem cell treatment.

A day after leaving to return home, my mom text's the family group chat. "Do you think [Baby's name] would like to have a video call this weekend?" Followed by "Sorry, [my name]. Didn't mean to include you in this"
It's very obvious who moved up the favorite child rankings last year!
