A woman’s experience during childbirth is unparalleled. It’s the roller coaster ride between euphoria and terror. What the mother is going through is unbearable.
The experience can be both heartwarming and emotionally taxing on the father
Pictures shot during the birth of their third child by the parents who took them have gone viral.
The emotional ups and downs of a new baby’s arrival were beautifully depicted in the new dad’s expressions.
A Dad Welcomes the Third Child Into the World
The modern norm is for the father to be present during the birth of his child.
This wasn’t always the case, though, which is kind of funny.
Traditionally, men weren’t allowed in the delivery room with their pregnant wives. Instead of a doting new father, these moms had a team of midwives to lean on.
They were very knowledgeable in the field of giving birth. It was considered rude for the father to be in the same room as his distraught wife, no matter how happy he was for her.
They would, instead, wait tensely in the hall. The midwife would then come out to announce that a baby boy or girl had been born healthy.
Men now are held to the same standards as they were centuries before.
They should do anything they can to make their wife feel at ease during childbirth, even if that means offering a hand for her to crush.
The third kid of two parents was born in Arkansas. Brett Sillis and his partner Amanda Renee’ have become Internet celebrities after posting birth photos to Instagram.
