Pain from labor and proper breathing during childbirth

Well, jokes aside. As well as dreams of shoving an orange to your beloved man you know where, so that he can imagine what a woman is going through in order to give birth to his blood. Now it’s enough to show him this video. And threaten that you will do the same to them if he insists that he will choose a name for your baby.

Now for the details. “Inhuman” from the point of view of the stronger sex (and from ours, on the contrary, just right) the experiment was staged at the University of Lincoln in Tennessee. The students were asked to experience contractions. Yes, yes, the same ones that are in front of attempts. Who gave birth, remember: so-so sensations.

The brave man was found alone. Johnny Wade. Future nurse. A special apparatus was connected to his lower abdomen, simulating the process using electrical discharges. His classmate became his “partner in childbirth”, who was given the honorable role of patting the “woman in labor” on the shoulders soothingly and saying: “Breathe, breathe!”

Do you know how long this hero lasted? Less than 20 seconds! The young man screamed in pain, and all his fellow students at their desks were dying of laughter.

After the experiment, the guy admitted: the pain was unbearable.

– I go in for extreme sports, I often get various injuries. I have something to compare with, – quotes a participant in the Daily Mail experiment. “But I’ve never experienced pain like this.

At the same time, the young man admitted that the simulator certainly does not convey the full depth of sensations that a woman experiences.

“I understand that it was ‘external’ pain, which cannot be compared with what you experience when your abdominal muscles are literally torn apart,” says Johnny.

Do you know why the guy first volunteered to pass this test? He is a father himself. And more than once. And his wife often made fun of him. Like, you will never understand what it is. But he understood!

– When at the end I wanted to shout out the stop word to stop the experiment, I could not even pronounce it, – John nervously shudders, remembering his feelings.

We add that three years ago, similar demonstrations began to be held in China. And there the men had to endure more than a few seconds. The strength of the discharges was gradually increased, in the same way as real contractions grow.

“Only a few have reached the scale identical to the peak of labor pain,” summed up the Chinese doctors.
