Everyone sees themselves as the standard, the "normal". Even if they are far, far away from "normal". 1 u/PalePlumm Apr 24 '26 I mean you could just listen to the labour and delivery nurses considering she sees this everyday and that’s her normal. Most I know say that dads tend to not do great during birth. 1 u/Square-Singer Apr 24 '26 Where do you live? I know a midwife, and she tells a different story. She says that shitty dads in the delivery room are rather rare.
