Do you have a funny story from giving birth?

After I had giving birth to my 1st child they put me in a new bed. The nurse broke that bed while I was in it.She was messing with the controls. She had me sitting straight up with my legs straight up so I was in a taco shape. The bed would not move from this position. So I had to get up and get in ANOTHER bed. Thank goodness, I have a sense of humor.

I was nearing transition and kinda flying high on endorphins.  I told my husband "We're adopting the next one," meaning that I didn't want to do it again for a while.  Everyone laughed but there's more to the story... if you don't mind slight racial humor then highlight the space below...

After I said we were adopting the next one my husband asked me "Do you want to adopt a black or an Asian baby?" trying to lighten the mood and I said "I want a Blasian"

I wasn't trying to be funny, and no one in my family is racist, I just couldn't make ANY decisions and so I combined the options lol.

I do still want to adopt some day lol.

This is probably going to make me sound completely horrible...but I couldnt help it.

I had just given my last push and she was out.  They flopped her onto my tummy and the first thing I said when I saw her was "Oh my God, eeew!" lol  I honestly wasnt expecting her to come out squeaky clean or anything.  but I didnt know they were going to flop her on my belly all gooey & slimy! lmao
Im really weird about body fluids & blood even boogers.  So it really grossed me out.

You should have seen the look the Dr. & nurses gave me. they laughed about it too though.

The anesthesiologist was giving me a bolus of epi and didn't screw the syringe good enough to the tube and as she was pushing really hard to get the meds in it skirted everywhere mostly all over my face. Everybody was laughing and so was I...at the same time I had a contraction...i was hurting pretty bad but man was it ever funny.

well lets see with my last I was pushing hard because I wanted the kid out NOW and there was alot of amniotic fluid behind her.  So right after she popped out a ton of fluid shot out and kind of went everywhere.  Hubby was right near the action so he got sprayed. I was watching her come out so I didn't really see him but I heard an 'oh my!' from a nurse and saw a flurry of activity in the corner.  Hubby was ripping off his sweater in one fluid motion and tossing it to the ground.  He was right back next to me in a flash and was holding baby a couple minutes later. He has a thing about body fluids and he really got splashed.
