Things Said in the Hospital Lately…

…that you’d rather not hear while giving birth:

Nurse talking about labor pain: “Oh that’s nothing! Wait until you get to 7 cm!”

Doctor: “The slowest progress allowed is 1 cm per hour.”

Doctor: “Oh, It’s time to break the water.” As he breaks the mom’s water without asking or discussing first.

Nurse comes into the room saying… “This is what we’re going to do!”

Nurse: “Anything that’s not a c-section is a natural birth to me.”

Nurse describing pain relief options: “…then there’s no medicine with screaming and breaking your partner’s hands and that’s when I close the door and leave the room!”
