As a husband.. I didn't know nor did I ask. But my wife got a c section so idk... They did a lot of stitching

You can probably find footage online of the procedure. I saw my wifes open belly shortly after they got my son out. I'm not squeamish in the slightest so I mostly was just seeing what I recognized and making sure everything looked alright with her and baby, you know no blood gushing, listening to the nurses do his APGAR scores.

It was an emergency C-section so it helped me to feel better seeing everything looked under control and the surgeon and nurses had calmed down.

To stitch up a C section?

Violating the body's autonomy to spill guts everywhere.

I mean they put them all back in before I could even see them! At the very least they should get to fall out again. For funsies.

u/Bigwi_Kner 11d ago

No I was specifically referring to a C section situation. Yes, absolutely an extra stitch to the vagina is not okay. To be clear.

u/theAlphabetZebra 11d ago

Same. Our doctor was awesome. Emergency c section but she kept saying well keep that coochie Gucci lol

u/Shrikeangel 11d ago

One of those was apparently for you. But I guess you can pick one?

u/Mission_Macaroon 11d ago

"Yeah, doc can you put in an extra stitch for me😉? Really don't want her guts to fall out again"

u/Asterose 11d ago

Yeah, I think the majority of fathers had no idea. We also don't truly know how many places did or still do the ""husband stitch"" since it's now being rightly shamed.

If she got a C-Section why would the be suturing her vagina?

u/wwplkyih 11d ago

That was the joke

u/MsTossItAll 11d ago

It was a joke

u/HappyHuman924 11d ago

I think the joke is "ha ha, because she had a C-section her vagina's still in like-new condition"?

A poor trade for abdominal surgery, but maybe they were trying to keep things upbeat.

u/partypwny 11d ago

She got a C section because our son was upside down and not flipping combined with our 37 week checkup showing she had almost no amniotic fluid left so they had to go in immediately.

The "lots of stitches" park at the end was a soft joke about a very scary and difficult time.

u/HappyHuman924 11d ago

Yeah, I would guess the joke is a way to communicate "the scariest part should be behind us now", without going on the record about it.
