My #1 reaction after Olive was born was... holy cow, that's just... wow.

After I got over the astonishment, I was overcome with a deep love and gratitude for Mrs. Bee. Childbirth is so much work - not just the labor and delivery, but the whole pregnancy part too!

Then I noted the time on my iPhone, so that Mrs. Bee could blog about it (at her request)

My final reaction was: wow, this whole experience was way more intense than a c-section. For me, at least.

What was your SO's reaction to witnessing childbirth?
