C-Section Changes Relationships
Share
Sam Parr shares how witnessing his wife's C-section transformed his perception of her and their relationship.
"We did a C-section which is like magic. The doctor was like 'I'm starting now' and literally I timed it - 4 minutes later the baby was crying and out. Then the doctor's like 'and now I'm putting your uterus back inside of you.'
It made me view women as wizards. The fact that they could have this being growing inside of them and then it's out - it gave me almost a spiritual respect for my wife. It was magical. You view her as a partner and also as a sex thing, but after this I'm like 'you're a god.' You are not just beautiful to me, you are like this spiritual being.
The week we had the baby, I think the stock market was dying or something. I barely looked, but I remember thinking the volume of love that I had for this new baby was so loud that every other problem was just silent. I just didn't care nearly as much. That was a pretty breathtaking thing to have."
