I'm gonna guess that she's happily startled because, for example, mine hit his weed pen outside every 15 minutes and fell asleep on the couch and never once came near me. I think that my experience (or smth similar) is pretty common.

Edit: Hi, I'm an actually human person and was the first to comment on this. I'm not trying to start a damn war of the roses, and apparently this is NOT the correct answer (see the next comment below mine). Just popped in with my stupid, obviously incorrect thought about what this could mean. So chill with calling me a stupid whore.

Mine left the hospital to grab a couple tallboys (large cans of beer) at the gas station across the street so he could get a buzz on while I was laboring.

ETA it felt great to leave him.

Mine left to get burger king because he was hungry, meanwhile I hadn't ate and wouldnt be allowed to for another while. The smell was nauseating.

I was in labor for roughly 5 million hours. Had an epidural, so I wasn’t in pain, just sick to my stomach and unable to eat.

My husband decided to also not eat in solidarity (which I thought was silly, but sweet of him) but his mother showed up and then of course HAD to try and feed him, as if HE was the one who needed to keep his strength up, lol.

It would have been fine if she’d just gotten him a doughnut from the hospital cafeteria or something, but of course that’s not what she did.

She brought in a toasted TUNA sub sandwich for him. I barfed my brains out the second she walked in the room with it.

They really should have signs up about no strong smelling food in L&D.
