Dad’s Selfie During Childbirth Sparks Laughter and Disbelief
In a lighthearted moment that captures the joys and chaos of parenthood, a dad recently shared a selfie taken right as his wife was giving birth to their daughter. The image, posted by Jake Thompson on Reddit, features him grinning in the foreground while his wife is hard at work in the background. It’s a snapshot that perfectly highlights the contrasting experiences of parents during childbirth. Reactions to the post ranged from admiration for Jake’s bravery to outright disbelief at his timing.
Jake explained in the caption that his wife wanted to capture the moment, so he snapped a selfie. One commenter humorously warned, “This is great, but you might want to watch your back when your wife’s fully recovered.” Another chimed in, “If my husband did this, I’d be furious! And I’m usually pretty chill.”
The comments section was equally entertaining, with quips like, “Congrats on the new life, but condolences on your own!” and “Hope you keep us posted so we know you’re still alive.” Fortunately, Jake’s wife found the humor in the situation and laughed at the photo. While delivery room selfies probably shouldn’t catch on, this one radiates joy—albeit from one parent while the other is in serious discomfort. Still, Jake’s excited expression is endearing, making him seem like the kind of partner you’d want to face the challenges of parenthood with. A sense of humor truly is a lifesaver during those exhausting early months!
Jake later shared on Facebook that their daughter arrived safely and without complications, a beautiful baby girl who he proudly claims is “just as lovely as her mom.” Congratulations to the happy family! But let this serve as a reminder to all the dads out there: this isn’t a trend to emulate.
