Anyone else watching One Born Every Minute?

If I were the woman there with the 2 grandmothers, I would have thrown them out long ago! They're absolutely obnoxious!!! And to her BF-not coming to the delivery because you don't "do" hospitals...if you can help get me into this, you had better be there to support me at the end (unless I don't want you there, of course...)

Re: Anyone else watching One Born Every Minute?

  • yes I totally agree. the grandmothers would drive me crazy and I also can't believe either that her bf didn't come because he doesn't, "do hospitals!" 

    also the 2nd time mom's labor seemed so easy. did she really only push for like 3 minutes? or did they just make it appear that way?

  • Great minds think alike! I just posted about it. lol

    I felt so bad for the lady with the moms! I am hoping and praying my mom and step mom don't get crazy.

    The other labors looked SO easy though...They were looking and smiling the whole time!

  • They didn't mention if she got an epidural or not. If she did, that could explain why her laboring up to the pushing was so easy. They definitely did make it look like it was 3 pushes and done, who knows I that's really how it was. I have heard some people are that lucky.

    That's how my last birth was, it was great (video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqiGlue2Hx0). Hoping I get that lucky again! :)

    As for OBEM, it pisses me off to see SO/BF's act soo unsupportive. I mean how hard is it to be there for your wife/girlfriend on the one day she is in labor?!?!  The one day she literally needs to hold your hand b/c she's in so much pain?!

  • Ha ha - get this: I watched it as I gave birth to my daughter tonight :)

  • Hubby and I watched the first 15 mins...we couldnt do any longer, because of the 2 grandmothers... I sooo would have punched them both and threw them out, LOL! They were making me MAD! Hubby said that is exactly why it is him and I ONLY in the room! I cannot believe they were acting so childish! LOVED the part where they said "you couldnt even heat the blanket" LOL...OOOO, can I have a pillow... Stupid! OK..I am done ranting about it!!Stick out tongue

    At the end of the episode I was thinking she would have probably been better off if her much more level-headed aunt had been in the room with her the whole time instead.  Thank goodness for that woman to try and help keep her focused on what was important.  Clearly the 2 grandmothers are high-strung people to begin with, which is all the more reason why her boyfriend should have been there to support her, if for no other reason than to handle those two women!
