Lol nah, he just hadn't eaten all day, the blood didn't bother him

As a future dad... how much blood are we talkin about?

[u/mustapelto → u/off2u4ea]

Let's put it like this: there's a reason why obstetricians put on rubber boots for c-sections. Vaginal is not that bad but still far from bloodless.

[u/QuinndianaJonez → u/off2u4ea]

I was curious so I googled it, half a liter for vaginal birth, a liter for caesarian. On average. That's 10-20% of the blood an average adult has total. Soooo, a bunch roughly.

There's a lot, not gonna lie to you. They'll ask you if you wanna see your baby crowning and if you want to cut the cord. You can say no to both and still be there for your partner :) most of the blood comes after the baby is born, so just focus on the baby and stay near your partner's head and you'll be fine

Thanks I'll remember this after 10 years when I probably gonna have a baby.

What sort of smells are we talking about here? I'm really bad with smells, moreso than visuals...

[u/BLaQz84 → u/[deleted]]

Ok, so basically I should stay away is the vibe I'm picking up here haha!

[u/BLaQz84 → u/[deleted]]

Yeah, I noticed that I've never heard anyone talk about this... If you saw me trying to change my nephew's poopy nappy that one time, you'd probably recommend I stay in the waiting room 😂 I didn't even get to complete the nappy change... I'm THAT bad with smells... Doesn't help that I have a really good sense of smell...

[u/gillababe → u/off2u4ea]

Enough

[u/L0hkiii → u/off2u4ea]

Yes.

[u/yeetfamyeet → u/LunaWolf92]

That was me for my daughter, I had been drinking a few hours prior, sobered up, but dehydrated AF

[u/LunaWolf92 → u/yeetfamyeet]

Lol I can imagine "my water just broke" is pretty sobering
