I was assuming something in that regard.
The woman is in an extreme amount of pain and her hormones are going wild. Having a man, who often can't even deal with a normal flue, say "It's ok, you can do this" can trigger a lot of aggression coming out.
(Especially because we sometimes lash out at people we consider safe in high stress situations)
How is trying to encourage your wife wrong? And why are you assuming her husband can't handle a normal flue? Also, how does this have anything to do with giving birth? I feel like you're making a lot of assumptions here.
There's nothing wrong with trying to encourage your partner while they need you. If anything, it should be normal and encouraged in my opinion.
