what if men were to give birth

Reminds me of what my teacher in high school said one time. She said that if human beings were designed so that the childbirth is experienced in alternate sessions (that is women have the first child, men the second, then women and so on)...the world will not need to worry about population control. That is men will decide that one child is enough, thereby, every couple would only have one child. Personally, I would love to see that too. Men usually have no idea what we go through, pregnancy and childbirth-wise.

I watched a movie before about this man given birth to his junior. If this is the case, it is just right for us women, so that men also experience the way we did every time we were pregnant, and when comes the time of delivery, the endurance of pain the most.

Personally I could never see this happening, and would be out of order for sure. Women were put on this earth to be the ones to carry children and give birth. If men were allowed even for one hr. men would not be able to handle it. They are not used to the type of pain they would have to endure, but then they would be able to probably understand women more for sure.

i also wanted it so bad. and i wish they have their pre menstruation syndrome too so they can understand how moody women is. all this time they are underestimate us because most women thinking with her feelings not with her mind

I have seen my sister went through this pregnancy and giving birth. I want to see the part where men would have to wait in the labour room until the baby comes out. I want to see them feel the pain just like the other mothers have gone through.

I can not even imagine the pains and changes included in being pregnant and giving birth to a child. The idea of the body changing so drastically in such a relative short time frame is what is mind boggling and would be difficult to handle. As a man, I gladly accept things for how they are and am very thankful I do not have to ever go through this experience! Which is why it's ever so reassuring to really support the mother of my child during that time period, whenever it comes!

I think it would solve the issue of over crowding. There are too many people in the world and if men were to have babies then we would probably go the other way and perhaps cease to exist. However, there are some men who are tougher and would be able to cope with child birth. My husband has always wondered what it would be like to have babies himself. I honestly cannot answer this. I didn't give birth, but had the baby taken out of me. I wish I could have given birth.

Hahaha, that would be very interesting, and weird! Have you seen the film "Junior" starring Arnlod Schwarzenegger? It's the story of a professor who was experimenting on making men pregnant. His character, Dr. Hesse, took frozen egg cells and implanted it into himself. He got pregnant and experienced all the things pregnant women experience, from morning sickness to eating selected foods and mood swings too, I think. It was pretty funny.

I don't know if men would be strong enough to handle it. there has to be a reason that women have been given this greatest gift and not the make population.

Wow that would be a gotta see moment, lol.. hmm then they would fully understand how hard it is to carry a child and or endure childbirth. I think that although it is not possible it would be nice that they too get the experience first hand.

If men could have babies... I wnder where the baby would have to come out of? lol... scary thought, but honestly if a man had to have a baby they would be ten times worst than women!

My pregnancy with my daughter was difficult the first trimester. Sick the whole time and tired. I worked all the time. My boyfriend, now husband, didnt understand to much, but he tried to be understanding. He went out to sea and I ended up flying to San Diego to meet up with him for a few days. It was breakfast time, the day I was leaving and I told him we need to go eat. he procrastinated. I ended up getting in the car, because i got to hungry. I became really upset with him and told him, when I say im hungry that means Im starving and need to eat NOW! My son I was sick the whole pregnancy. My husband was more understanding this go around and pampered me the best he cld. i was taking care of a toddler and the pets and house. All i cld do was eat, sleep and puke. Even after all the trials in pregnancy I wldnt trade it. With the bad comes good. I wldnt trade that bond with my baby. Feeling my baby move. Giving birth and meeting who had been kicking me and using my bladder as a trampoline for 9 months. Im selfish and want to keeo that to myself. My husband can just continue to pamper me.
