Childbirth

Today, our boss took us to this coffee shop called "Pan Heong" somewhere near Batu Caves. This place is apparently famous for its fish porridge and has got numerous newspapers cuttings and photos of well known politicians and celebrities visiting the shop. We had quite a lot of dishes which included prawns (bigass ones), frog legs, noodles, vege, some dunno what rolls and of course porridge with "yao char kueh".

We went in 3 different cars and the one I sat in, there were 5 of us. Out of which, only 2 were married with kids; 1 male colleague and 1 female colleague. And it was on the way to Batu Caves that the funniest conversation took place... about childbirth.

Women do not faint right after the baby is born...
You would've thought that with all the pushing and heavy breathing... one would be too exhausted after childbirth and might faint / fall asleep in relief immediately! But apparently no lor...

Men & Childbirth = Impotent...
Our female colleague told us that her friend's husband was impotent for several months cos every time they wanted to do "it", he remembered the hairy head coming out from her... you know where...

Nurses are rude...
If you think that nurses are gentle and kind since the poor mother is already in a state of mind-numbing pain... think again... Our male colleague told us that an old nurse scolded his wife for "delaying" the childbirth. She was apparently hospitalized for 24 hours... and the nurse went: "Wei, how long more you wanna wait? Everybody's going home di!" and shouted "PUSHHHH don't just SHOUTTTT...!" when the wife was in the midst of giving birth...

Husband & wife in operation theatre = Appreciative husband...
Our male colleague told us that he pitied his wife as he saw the pain that she had to go thru to give him a daughter. After the whole ordeal, he apparently treated the wife better and even got her an LV bag... hehehe...

So moral of the story?

• Make sure you drag your husband into the operating theatre with you. If you are gonna suffer, he jolly well be beside you...
• BUT, make sure he stands next to you and not opposite you so that he doesn't become impotent after that...
