I didn't have and epidural............ you can imagine that I didn't say funny things though0
-
As soon as they gave me the epidural I saw the nurse who was taking care of me pour confetti over my husband's head. I was like "why you pouring confetti over his head, I am doing all the hard work" . And the nurse said "she is all loopy now".

With my middle son, they gave me some kind of Demerol derivative, and I was singing James Brown's "I Feel Good!"
With my youngest, I didn't get to have any medication (things went to fast), and I think, "kill me now" escaped my lips a time or two.
Funny...I don't remember much at all about my eldest, but then, that's been over 28 years ago, and I think I slept through most of it.0 -

"Ok I change my mind, I don't think this is the right time to have a baby. Lets go home."0

I had my third child naturally, and I don't remember what I actually said, but I was told to stop screaming because I was scaring the other pregnant ladies on the floor. :laugh:0

I just burst out laughing at this!
I don't have children but I don't take well to any type of meds beyond an advil or tylenol and usually end up stoned out of my trees. My last hospital visit required a shot of torodol to the backside, as my mother was driving home I looked her and said "the sleepy train choo choo choosed me." Needless to say I had a glorious sleep that night haha0 -
when the Ring of Fire started happening....i distinctly remember shouting..
OK OK OK OK...stop....STOP.... put it back...put it back!!!0 -
To the OB I said "Put that coffee down and catch!" as the nurses told me to stop pushing and wait for him.0
-
my mom was in the delivery room with me and kept yelling loudly in a super hyper high pitched excited voice... "Come On Laurie,give it one more UMPH!" like a dozen times EVERYTIME I had to push, like my personal freaking cheerleader, it was not motivational... it was really annoying!:grumble:0
-
I didn't say anything funny, but my husband was kicked out of the delivery room. I had an emergency Cesarian for the first baby. We never found out the sex at any of the ultrasounds(personal choice). When the Dr. announced "It's a boy!" My husband said "Dammit! Put it back!". I busted out laughing, but nobody else appreciated it, so he was escorted from the room.0
-
With my first I told everybody that if they didn't get the hell out of the room I was going to personally kill each and every one of them. I believe the Dr thought I meant it. Must have been the look in my eye. The second one came quick and fast. By the third one I was an expert and was watching the football game. Go Dawgs!0
-
Nothing...I had c-sections but I will say when they told me my kid had red hair I was ready to sit up and look lol. I was afraid of her having orange hair lol. I have a family member who has orange hair not red! Whew lol0
-
After 48 hours of labor and no sleep, they gave me morphine, unhooked all my wires and IV tubes so I could get a good night's sleep.
The last thing i remember is "I feel all warm.. did I pee myself?" busted into a giggle, then everything from then on is a blur lol Til I woke up the next day vomiting because of the contractions.0 -
with my daughter I had an epidural and between contractions I was just laying on the bed...everyone looking at me made me nervous so I asked if they wanted me to turn on the tv so they would have something more interesting to watch...
also almost did the splits on my knees during a contraction and scared the crud out of my nurse...0 -
My poor husband asked me (for about the 25th time) if I was having a contraction. (DUH!) I finally said "No! I'm having a f*****g orgasm! "0

With my first the doctor told me I was doing marvelous so I started singing "How Marvelous" (gospel) with my grandmother.
With my second I yelled at the doctor to stop pushing him back in. The doctor kept gently nudging my son's head back (I guess I was pushing too good?).
With my third I don't think I said anything funny. I was too busy being ticked at my then husband for being drunk.0 -
I don't recall much anything I said, but before I got the epidural I was having a contraction and my husband was watching the monitor. When it was done and I had released my hulk grip from the bed rails he looked at me and said "Wow, that was a big one." :huh: I wanted to punch him, but I couldn't really move so I believe I just said "You think?" or "Thanks, I didn't notice". He just needed a bag of popcorn to make the scene. After the epidural, things were much nicer and I told him that if he had been closer he would have lost his man bits, but I was able to laugh at it later.0

Me either for my second. I did hear my midwife tell a nurse "Will you close the door already? She's screaming so loud, she's going to scare the expectant mothers touring the birthing suites!" I remember wanting to laugh but it coming out as a scream instead. I vaguely remember saying things like "Make it stop" "get this kid out of me" and "I'm done, I'm going home, I'm not having this baby today"
My midwife was the best. During labor with my first child, one of the nurses kept counting rèally loud when I was pushing and it was pissing me off. I didn't say anything but I guess my face said it all because my midwide told her to shut up or leave lol.0 -
This might be TMI but here goes...
I was terrified of pooping during delivery. I remember asking my husband.. 'Did I just poop?!?' Of course he replied no
And .. Yup... I popped!! It ain't easy pushing a 10 lb 4 oz baby out!!
So glad I didn't eat that corn on the cob the night before. Lmao0 -
Pooped not popped.0

For the first child, labor & delivery was blissfully quick... so quick I almost didn't make it to the hospital. I remember the nurse telling me not to push because my Dr wasn't there yet, I looked at her and said (this quote is partially remembered and partially from my ex hubby filling me in), "Get down there and catch B!@#$" LOL
The second child was rather large (almost 10 lbs), and the poor Dr was getting ready to go on his dinner break... he came to see how things were progressing and as he was going to check my water broke and suddenly the contractions were on top of each other. He said, "ok April, I really need my dinner, can you hold on for a little bit?" And I pretty much told him the same thing I told the first nurse with a little additional, "Are you F!@$#% kidding me?? Get down there and catch!!!"
My last child, it was the tech that was with me that was hysterical (and a good friend). Since I was alone this time around, and was freaking out because I knew something was wrong (she was a month early)... My Tech looked at me and said, "Get your S@#$ together and be the strong B@#$% I know you are!!!!"
Sorry for all the explatives0 -
With my oldest I was in hard labour for 19 hours so the nurse gave me the oxygen mask. She told my husband to put it on my fast every few seconds. He had it held to my face so tight I could barely breath. I told the nurse that she had better make room in the morgue because I was going to kill him. After pushing for so long I started to go into shock. The Dr. told me to push and I said No thanks, i'm done. He stood up and said pardon? I swung my legs around and got off the bed and told him that I was going home. He told me that If I didn't get back on the bed that he would restrain me down. So I complied with lying down but I wouldn't push. He told my husband that he had better sign the forms for the epideral because something happens to the baby. I told him if he signed them I would break every finger on his hands. So my mom signed the forms...lol
With my youngest we were driving on the highway to meet my mom to drop my oldest off to her. My mom was about an hour and a half from our house and the hospital was about another 1.5hrs. It was pouring rain and I got out of the car to tell my mom that I would not make it to the hospital and the baby's head came out. I ran back to the car holding her head and told my ex he better go to this hospital as she was already on her way. We pulled up to the hospital and I am holding her head and trying to get my oldest out of her carseat. The security guard (old old man) asked if there was an issue. I said no, I am just going to get her out and then I am going to delivery the rest of this baby. He panics and runs, grabs the wheel chair and wheels me in. No doctor (small town) so my husband delivers the baby. The doctor finally comes, takes a look at me and says..I can throw a stitch in there if you want. I said...No it is ok, you didn't do anything before, why bother now.0 -
I'm so hungry!!!
It's funny because who would want to eat then right? But, the doc had me off of food for over 24 hours.0 -
I also did not have meds, so I don't think I said anything funny. But, the first time I said, "It's ok, I'm ok. I can handle this because I'm just never going to do it again". That did cause people to laugh because they knew I would have more children. I also remember while pushing saying over and over, "What if I'm not a good mother?" And everyone was saying, "You don't have to worry about that. You already are a good mother, already."
And the second time when it was time to push I remembered the first time and said, "No, I don't want to do it this time." The second one was at home and I have a pic in my profile of me nursing my baby right after the birth.0 -
With my oldest, I was in the middle of pushing, and the nurse told my husband to say something to make me mad so I would push harder (I didn't hear her say this to him). So he told me "good grief would you hurry up already, I am getting hungry!" I about came unglued!!!!! But I think it worked, because I had the baby just a couple of minutes later. lol.0

Don't really remember saying anything in particular, but during the birth of my 4th daughter I nearly pulled my husband's ears off!:explode:0
-
I don't remember saying anything funny, but with my first, I remember being really happy and a little drowsy, and talking to my family and they thought I was funny. Later on, when there were contractions, the nurses were saying how good it was that I wasn't screaming like the other ladies we could hear through the walls. I'm just so caught up in what's going on, to scream, and knew that it wouldn't make me feel better anyway.
Funniest thing is that my sons were both born already fitting into 3 month old clothes. We joke that my second son looked like a sumo wrestler next to all these other babies, all swole lol, and he weighed as much as 2 twins there put together.0
