0:00:43.040 --> 0:00:49.560
<v Speaker 1>the combination the surfing, tough Christian, Patsy and Jack. As

0:00:49.680 --> 0:00:52.760
<v Speaker 1>Jack still hasn't come to terms with the reality of

0:00:52.840 --> 0:00:55.800
<v Speaker 1>his wife Bianca's labor. Here's the story of my new

0:00:55.960 --> 0:00:58.440
<v Speaker 1>dad Foulm. My wife Jackie went into labor at seven

0:00:58.440 --> 0:01:01.400
<v Speaker 1>point thirty am. We had a leisurely ten minute drive

0:01:01.440 --> 0:01:05.000
<v Speaker 1>to the hospital. The obstetrician popped in around ten am

0:01:05.040 --> 0:01:06.800
<v Speaker 1>when everything was still calm, and told us the baby

0:01:07.040 --> 0:01:08.959
<v Speaker 1>was still a few good hours away. So I offered

0:01:09.000 --> 0:01:11.040
<v Speaker 1>to pomp down to the shops down the road get

0:01:11.080 --> 0:01:13.040
<v Speaker 1>to get us some extra lonnies for the birth. I

0:01:13.080 --> 0:01:15.720
<v Speaker 1>was so excited about being a new dad. I celebrated

0:01:16.200 --> 0:01:18.960
<v Speaker 1>with a coffee and a donut at the nearest cafe.

0:01:19.000 --> 0:01:21.160
<v Speaker 1>Then I bought my wife some donuts and I went

0:01:21.200 --> 0:01:23.480
<v Speaker 1>and visited the fair trade shop for some coffee.

0:01:23.840 --> 0:01:25.800
<v Speaker 2>While I was there, I picked up a lovely handmade

0:01:25.840 --> 0:01:26.800
<v Speaker 2>mobile for the crib.

0:01:27.680 --> 0:01:31.080
<v Speaker 1>On the way back, I saw bookshops a brows find

0:01:31.120 --> 0:01:33.360
<v Speaker 1>her a perfect book, finishing this all off with a

0:01:33.360 --> 0:01:35.160
<v Speaker 1>boat care for hours to stroll back to the hospital.

0:01:35.440 --> 0:01:37.720
<v Speaker 1>I'd about an hour and a half, I guess, feeling

0:01:37.880 --> 0:01:41.280
<v Speaker 1>like new Den of the Year, only to find my

0:01:41.400 --> 0:01:44.560
<v Speaker 1>wife crouched on hands and knees on the bed, already

0:01:44.560 --> 0:01:48.120
<v Speaker 1>with an eperjurial and still screaming in pain every five minutes.

0:01:48.200 --> 0:01:51.560
<v Speaker 1>Ten hours later, our son was born in breech position,

0:01:51.640 --> 0:01:52.720
<v Speaker 1>which explained the pain.

0:01:53.240 --> 0:01:57.320
<v Speaker 2>So if jack expects cliff bars.

0:01:56.680 --> 0:01:59.320
<v Speaker 1>And power aid to cut it, it's time to wake

0:01:59.440 --> 0:02:02.680
<v Speaker 1>up Jackie by and smell the fair trade coffee.

0:02:03.520 --> 0:02:05.120
<v Speaker 2>Scotty, that's a great email.

0:02:05.240 --> 0:02:07.720
<v Speaker 3>Don't forget about the killer python, Scutdy.

0:02:07.520 --> 0:02:09.480
<v Speaker 1>Oh he's forgotten Scotty's forgotten.

0:02:09.720 --> 0:02:10.120
<v Speaker 2>Ps.

0:02:10.200 --> 0:02:12.959
<v Speaker 1>While we're at it, playing any song to woman and

0:02:13.080 --> 0:02:17.280
<v Speaker 1>labor that has the chorus always waiting on you will

0:02:17.320 --> 0:02:20.440
<v Speaker 1>never be played again in that household. Yeah, Jack to

0:02:20.480 --> 0:02:24.000
<v Speaker 1>put together a playlist of songs he thought were soothing

0:02:24.040 --> 0:02:26.919
<v Speaker 1>and appropriate for when his wife Anka goes into labor.

0:02:30.880 --> 0:02:35.360
<v Speaker 1>Great spot for Scotty about his life, Scotty, that's all

0:02:36.240 --> 0:02:36.880
<v Speaker 1>very very.

0:02:36.760 --> 0:02:39.200
<v Speaker 2>Good, Christian.

0:02:39.240 --> 0:02:40.840
<v Speaker 1>Can you let Jack know the story when I was

0:02:40.880 --> 0:02:43.800
<v Speaker 1>working as a midwife when I had my son. So

0:02:43.919 --> 0:02:46.480
<v Speaker 1>yesterday on the show, we were talking about alternative ways

0:02:46.520 --> 0:02:49.880
<v Speaker 1>to try and induce labor and the anchor Jack's wife

0:02:50.320 --> 0:02:52.920
<v Speaker 1>wants the baby out. This week at almost what thirty

0:02:53.040 --> 0:02:57.800
<v Speaker 1>nine weeks yep. At my thirty eight week review with

0:02:57.919 --> 0:03:01.320
<v Speaker 1>my obstetrician, I slapped a pad of cherry ripes on

0:03:01.400 --> 0:03:04.400
<v Speaker 1>his desk and asked him what he was doing tomorrow.

0:03:04.720 --> 0:03:07.240
<v Speaker 2>He replied, what are you doing this afternoon?

0:03:08.040 --> 0:03:13.040
<v Speaker 1>Membranes officially artificially ruptured. Three hours and forty five minutes later,

0:03:13.200 --> 0:03:16.079
<v Speaker 1>I was holding my son. My tip to Jackie boy,

0:03:16.440 --> 0:03:22.960
<v Speaker 1>find out what your obstetrician's favorite chocolate is. He doesn't

0:03:23.080 --> 0:03:26.480
<v Speaker 1>stand and basically they were bribe to get it out,

0:03:26.520 --> 0:03:27.639
<v Speaker 1>get in there and get it out.

0:03:28.800 --> 0:03:29.600
<v Speaker 2>So what does he do?

0:03:29.840 --> 0:03:32.760
<v Speaker 1>We don't need to go into the actual well, there's

0:03:32.760 --> 0:03:34.600
<v Speaker 1>only one thing he can really do. There's only one

0:03:34.639 --> 0:03:37.680
<v Speaker 1>doorway to go through to you know, he's not giving

0:03:37.720 --> 0:03:41.840
<v Speaker 1>her a foot rub mate, What do you think pleasing

0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:44.480
<v Speaker 1>a title? He's an obstetrician. He's not going to get

0:03:44.480 --> 0:03:46.640
<v Speaker 1>a steaders come and go, let's see your tonsils?

0:03:47.360 --> 0:03:47.880
<v Speaker 2>Okay?

0:03:48.000 --> 0:03:50.960
<v Speaker 3>If that, if that's already one of you asking me seriously?

0:03:51.480 --> 0:03:54.360
<v Speaker 2>Right almost thirty nine weeks? What's he going to do?

<v Speaker 3>So if he's anything like his papa, he will come today.

0:04:20.680 --> 0:04:23.279
<v Speaker 1>And it's the only time that you were ever early

0:04:26.680 --> 0:04:31.960
<v Speaker 1>a one off. And quote and so what what stage

0:04:32.000 --> 0:04:33.200

<v Speaker 2>In Bianca?

0:04:36.960 --> 0:04:40.400
<v Speaker 3>Yesterday we took the pram out for a spin to

0:04:40.440 --> 0:04:42.080
<v Speaker 3>see how how it runs.

0:04:42.279 --> 0:04:44.720
<v Speaker 2>But there's no kid in there, So what do you

0:04:44.760 --> 0:04:45.479
<v Speaker 2>have in there? The dog?

0:04:45.560 --> 0:04:45.960

0:04:46.080 --> 0:04:49.720
<v Speaker 2>Those those people got the dog in the pram and okay, by.

0:04:50.839 --> 0:04:52.680
<v Speaker 3>We didn't take the Actually our feeling sorry for the

0:04:52.720 --> 0:04:54.240
<v Speaker 3>dog at the moment because I feel like any of

0:04:54.279 --> 0:04:56.880
<v Speaker 3>the baby stuff Bianker wants to try out on the dog, I've.

0:04:57.000 --> 0:04:59.440
<v Speaker 2>Like put put it in there.

0:04:59.600 --> 0:05:02.320
<v Speaker 3>We don't we don't know how to swaddle yet.

0:05:02.520 --> 0:05:06.840
<v Speaker 1>She's not breastfeeding. My team usually gums.

0:05:07.720 --> 0:05:08.680
<v Speaker 2>The pram was.

0:05:08.800 --> 0:05:10.760
<v Speaker 3>We just took it out empty, and I that was

0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:13.159
<v Speaker 3>Banker's idea, to be honest, I wanted to wait until.

0:05:13.279 --> 0:05:15.840
<v Speaker 1>If I were Cloak, break my heart, I would have

0:05:15.839 --> 0:05:19.680
<v Speaker 1>thought something happened. You know, did anyone see that there

0:05:19.720 --> 0:05:20.520
<v Speaker 1>was nothing in there?

0:05:21.160 --> 0:05:24.080
<v Speaker 3>No, thankfully, because you could tell someone recognized you.

0:05:24.839 --> 0:05:26.520
<v Speaker 1>Maybe the baby's been born. They haven't heard the show

0:05:26.560 --> 0:05:28.599
<v Speaker 1>for a while, and you've just forgotten about the baby.

0:05:28.600 --> 0:05:34.000
<v Speaker 2>You know, that was Jack's job. So I forgot the baby.

0:05:34.080 --> 0:05:35.520
<v Speaker 2>Let me. I just jumped back and get him. He'll

0:05:35.520 --> 0:05:36.400
<v Speaker 2>be fine, he'd be fine.

0:05:37.000 --> 0:05:39.680
<v Speaker 3>I was thinking, you were so calm. It's made of peep.

0:05:39.800 --> 0:05:40.640
<v Speaker 3>Since we've been out here.

0:05:40.640 --> 0:05:44.360
<v Speaker 2>You have one of these quiet on, very very quiet.

0:05:44.720 --> 0:05:47.240
<v Speaker 1>This is why Jack needs to support group, which is

0:05:47.240 --> 0:05:50.640
<v Speaker 1>why I launched recently on the show The League of Dad's.

0:05:54.120 --> 0:05:55.920
<v Speaker 1>Being in ad is an amazing thing. It's an honor,

0:05:55.920 --> 0:05:58.360
<v Speaker 1>it's a privilege. But you can't do it alone. You're

0:05:58.400 --> 0:06:01.000
<v Speaker 1>not going to read all the books, all the Dry

0:06:01.040 --> 0:06:02.279
<v Speaker 1>Mooring podcasts about it.

0:06:02.320 --> 0:06:04.640
<v Speaker 2>You give me too tired, very soon to read the.

0:06:04.720 --> 0:06:07.120
<v Speaker 1>Latest research and what you should do, what you shouldn't do.

0:06:07.360 --> 0:06:09.479
<v Speaker 2>It's all changed since five years ago. Why did you

0:06:09.520 --> 0:06:12.360
<v Speaker 2>do this? We did this with our kid. It worked great. Sure,

0:06:13.160 --> 0:06:13.920
<v Speaker 2>you need to go true.

0:06:13.920 --> 0:06:17.839
<v Speaker 3>There's so many at the moment sling around the bench

0:06:18.040 --> 0:06:20.720
<v Speaker 3>the table just printed off PDFs of what we need

0:06:20.760 --> 0:06:21.080
<v Speaker 3>to know.

0:06:21.320 --> 0:06:22.560
<v Speaker 2>We need to overwhelming.

0:06:24.880 --> 0:06:29.040
<v Speaker 1>What Jack needs is real life advice that's been learned

0:06:29.040 --> 0:06:30.400
<v Speaker 1>the hard way through.

0:06:30.279 --> 0:06:31.039
<v Speaker 2>Getting it wrong.

0:06:31.520 --> 0:06:36.240
<v Speaker 1>I need dads to assemble and form with me the League.

0:06:37.480 --> 0:06:39.440

<v Speaker 1>Christian O'Connell dot com dot AU. Thank you very much

0:07:01.360 --> 0:07:03.840
<v Speaker 1>to the dads that I've already started to step forward

0:07:04.080 --> 0:07:05.719
<v Speaker 1>and say yes, I want in. I want to be

0:07:05.760 --> 0:07:09.159
<v Speaker 1>part of this support group for each other, the League

0:07:09.320 --> 0:07:09.920
<v Speaker 1>of Dads.

0:07:10.720 --> 0:07:15.000
<v Speaker 4>Christian, good morning, and thank you very much for creating

0:07:15.000 --> 0:07:18.040
<v Speaker 4>a wonderful incentive for the League of Dads. Look, if

0:07:18.040 --> 0:07:20.160
<v Speaker 4>it was me giving my advice back to me on

0:07:20.240 --> 0:07:24.640
<v Speaker 4>behalf of Jack, I make sure he focuses purely on

0:07:24.680 --> 0:07:28.080
<v Speaker 4>the transformation of his beautiful birthing partner, the woman who

0:07:28.120 --> 0:07:31.800
<v Speaker 4>bears the child, and will transform and it will be

0:07:31.800 --> 0:07:34.360
<v Speaker 4>greater than what she and you could ever imagine, and

0:07:34.720 --> 0:07:39.000
<v Speaker 4>unlocking those very gustural human symphonics that resonate well beyond

0:07:39.040 --> 0:07:42.160
<v Speaker 4>the birth canal moments. But more importantly, yeah, look, the

0:07:42.160 --> 0:07:44.560
<v Speaker 4>basic social formula for your first child is you do

0:07:44.640 --> 0:07:48.920
<v Speaker 4>become a parent. The second child you're becoming up riches.

0:07:49.720 --> 0:07:54.000
<v Speaker 3>That was way too vage. How do I make transform?

0:07:54.160 --> 0:07:56.640
<v Speaker 2>Give you? I can use talk about Richard.

0:07:56.680 --> 0:08:01.200
<v Speaker 1>He an't coming in League of Dads right, No, nerves

0:08:01.200 --> 0:08:03.480
