    Probably should go to the hospital and then proceed to be a good dad for the rest of your life.

    Also, congratulations!

    At least she didn't join Sinn Féin eh.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,561 ✭✭✭Dave0301


    I would stop posting on boards and go see if there is anything she needs/wants, and above all just be there for her.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,516 ✭✭✭wazky


    Stop watching it, you'll never look at that vagina the same way again if you do.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,900 ✭✭✭rannerap


    Start a pointless thread on boards that'll totally help the situation

    Run. Run to Mexico.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,344 ✭✭✭Thoie


    Start boiling water and tearing up towels. Wander over to Buzzfeed too, see if there's anything of interest there today.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,855 ✭✭✭knucklehead6


    Are you sure it's yours?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,622 ✭✭✭Ruu


    Log off.

  • Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 25,948 Mod ✭✭✭✭Neyite


    Rip up sheets and boil water !!!!


    Oh, and if she ends up having a C-section, dont look up at the light.

    Actually this is way better than my advice :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 191 ✭✭jjjade


    Probably should get of boards... but one tip for you stay calm!!! she will freak if you are freaking!

    Good luck

    ITS INDUCED LABOUR... THERES NO DAYS LONG **** GOIN DOWN HERE SON..


  • Registered Users Posts: 48 Fingers!


    Always a difficult time for a man. Keep the chin up and you'll get through this difficult time. Tell herself to stop looking for attention -- shouting at everyone isn't going to achieve anything in this situation.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,458 ✭✭✭✭gandalf


    Did she not tell you that she was pregnant until now or something!!! Relax and stay out of reach until after the child has been delivered.

    Oh and congrats :)

    Suppose it's too late to tell you to pull out


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 8,486 ✭✭✭miju


    Take a few snaps of herself and we will all make our best attempts to give you sound medical advice.

    Plus your other half will appreciate it too :)

    Don't watch!!!!

    It's not a spectator sport no matter what they tell you. Don't let her hold your hand she will CRUSH it. This is not the time for comedy, trust me....it may sound funny in your head but for some reason women lose their sense of humour around this time.

    Also congratulations :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,750 ✭✭✭iDave


    Not sure if I believe this.


  • Posts: 26,052 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Boards shouldn't actually be the focus of your attention right now. It doesn't matter if you're freaking out, there's a bigger picture here and you're not in it! Mind your partner and many congratulations and I hope it all goes smoothly.

    Deep breaths for both of you.

    Think we can safely say we don't want pictures for proof though.

    You think it's time to say pics or gtfo? :D

    whatever you do, don't complain about anything. Or speak without being spoken to. And be prepared for her to lose the head at you for little or no reason. labour is like a scene from the exorcist


  • Registered Users Posts: 430 ✭✭Pablodreamsofnew


    I'd start with getting of boards on your phone and focus on your girlfriend before she kills you!! It's the ONE time in a woman's life when ALL your complete and undivided attention should be on her.

    Also hate to break it to you.. I was induced and gave birth about 2 days laters. Sucks to be you!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,556 ✭✭✭the_monkey


    It's a tough time allright, it was a traumatic time for me as well as my wife.

    In a few days ye'll be grand getting into the swing of things ..


  • Posts: 24,714 [Deleted User]


    Wait with her until the baby is born and once both are confirmed to be doing well go to the pub and drink the head off yourself to celebrate!!

    Well stop freaking out for starters, that's the last thing a woman in labour needs.
    You're are meant to be cool, calm, collected and helpful one now.
    Best of luck OP, it is a magical time and you'll shed a manly tear before the night is out.

    Still can take a while...
    But if it happens today, enjoy the experience but DO NOT take a look down the business end, I repeat DO NOT take a look!!! :eek:


  • Registered Users Posts: 430 ✭✭Pablodreamsofnew


    It's not like you're the one who needs to push a melon through your butthole. You'll be grand but she on the other hand won't be able to sit straight for a few months and oh goodbye vagina. ( for FOREVER)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,532 ✭✭✭Lou.m


    'WHAT SHOULD YOU DO???????'

    BE THERE FOR HER...DO WHATEVER THE FU*K SHE SAYS???

    Only one thing to do when your wife/girlfriend is giving birth: Selfie


  • Registered Users Posts: 12 Arcturus IV


    You're freaking out and she's the one in Labour?

    Get off the site, stay by her side until the baby is born and then go out and down a skinfull at the pub in celebrations.


  • Registered Users Posts: 48 Fingers!


    Might not even be yours..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 220 ✭✭Ravenid


    Can We Pick the Name???!!!!!

    Twatwaffle is very popular these days.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,482 ✭✭✭secman


    file that complaint form with Durex..................


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 279 ✭✭Angry_Mammarys


    I heard watching your partner go through labour is kinda like watching your favourite pub burn down:)


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,145 ✭✭✭LETHAL LADY


    Hubby took a close up photo of my face right after giving birth, the fecker!
    My nose looked like Chris Eubanks (must have been the meds) and he thought it was hilarious.

    +1 that we should name the luttle ankle biter.

    Arthur Horatio if it's a boy. Alice Helga for a girl.

    Either way they shall be called AH.
