Is this not the worst birthing experience ever?

A man and a woman were expecting their first child. The pregnancy was normal all the way. The woman even went into labor on the exact day expected for the birth. All was well.

In the labor room the dutiful father to be was right as his wife’s side. Having been through the Lamaze classes together he was helping her with the breathing exercises and all was going well.

Suddenly the OB says to the expectant father, “Uh oh. We’re going to have to rush your wife into surgery. You’re not allowed in the operating room so please go to the waiting room and I will come and get you once we know what is going on.”

The father did as he was told and waited for what seemed like an eternity. Finally the OB shows up and said, “There is no easy way to tell you this but your new baby has a congenital birth defect.”

The anxious father was on his feet immediately. “What’s wrong? Is it serious?”

The OB says, “I think it’s better if you just follow me to the nursery.”

Once there they stood at the viewing window. A nurse picked up the baby that was wrapped in blankets and brought the newborn close to the viewing window and pulled the blanket back. What the father saw was just a big, hairy butt with one eyeball right in the middle.

The devastated father wailed, “Oh my God ! What could possibly be worse ?”

Then the OB said, “It’s blind.”

Terrible. Just terrible.
