its not too bad, the newborn phase is rough , but you like doing it anyways because they are so feeble and cute. make sure to take time off during the first 2 weeks to help out
best advice i can give is, get your wife your fav meal after labour because you're so fucking hungry
i went around 48+ hours? , 3 hours of that was active pushing, no meds all natural after it was done i was on a huge adrenaline rush, and than after that i was ferocious for food , most likely because i did not eat much during labour as it hurt too much, i ate some cold fruit but that was it.
my labour was rough i was having contractions every 3 minutes from the get go. which i dont think is too normal?
the only meds i had was saline to peak me back up ,and after birth i had to have injections to make my uterus contract or id hemorrhage out to death on the table.
thank god for modern medicine,
