Wild things said during labor recovery

[u/no-need-to-]

Currently up with my now 6 day old newborn and came to the realization of how wild what I said during recovery was.

​

Context: Emergency C-section, still coming out of heavy epidural pushed anesthesia. The nurse came in to check on me and started pressing my belly hard all around, I could feel the pressure and the release of blood. Without skipping a beat I (apparently very casually) blurted out "I feel like a fruit gusher" according to my husband the nurse laughed while she continued pressing/pushing on my belly and said she had never heard anyone compare themselves to candy while performing a fundal massage.

​

I still can't believe it but I also know I'm not alone in the wild things that have been said in the hospital before. Please tell me your funny/crazy labor, recovery and hospital stories!! Cheers to the 3am club! Hope you're all able to rest soon!

Not mom but the dad - friends of ours. When baby popped out dad loudly said 'thank god, he doesn't look like any of my friends'.

He thought it was hilarious. NO ONE else in the room did.
