When a child is born?

2 kids 2 and a half hours labour combined.On the second the missus was out less than 24 hours later.Was'nt too much of a strain for me.

The mental calculation post is genuine and actually its not that difficult if you remember the old poem: -


Thirty days hath September,
April, June, and November.
All the rest have thirty-one,
Excepting February alone,
And that has twenty-eight days clear,
And twenty-nine in each leap year.

No emotional strain for wife or child then :-p

The wife said they were the 2 best experiences of her life and she does'nt understand how a newborn can suffer emotional strain and if they can how do you know,how do they get it across to you at a few minutes old?

My wife has a pain threshold 99% of men would die for.She was 18 when our son was born, after 28 hours of labour, no screaming or shouting, our daughter was born two years later, we went into hospital at 06:00 she was born at 08:04 and we were on the way home at 11:30!

I'm definitely coming back as a man next time, it's so much easier ;-)

As it has been scientifically proven, nothing hurts more than a man being hit in the balls.

Actually, I think a heart attack was cited as the worst pain a man could feel. And childbirth was rated higher on the pain threshold.

Nope, it's kidney stones. And it's the colic, not the passing them that's the painful bit.

Acute renal colic is probably the most excruciatingly painful event a person can endure. Striking without warning, the pain is often described as being worse than childbirth, broken bones, gunshot wounds, burns, or surgery.

I had a particularly nasty case that made me go into kidney failure on my left side about 5 years ago. The first time the pain hit I was in the bank working, I just dropped to my knees and threw up there and then. I would have happily had someone shoot me to stop the pain.
