Todd: So, Simon, how old is your son now?

Simon: He's just over three months now.

Todd: OK, so it should be pretty fresh in your memory. Do you remember what it was like the day he was born?

Simon: Yeah, sure. I was in the operating room.

Todd: No kidding. The delivery room.

Simon: In the delivery room. Not the operating room. Sorry. Well, the do operate, kind of, but the delivery room so.

Todd: Well, let's go to the very beginning, like your at home, like what happened?

Simon: So I was, as usual it happens when you never expect it, and it came a couple of days earlier than we thought, and she had labor pains at about 4 o'clock in the morning.

Part 2

Simon: Then we took her to the hospital. I took a couple pictures of her, just for the buddies, "Hey, look at my better half in pain.

Todd: Right. So you got the hospital by car, by taxi. Were you driving fast?

Simon: I think we went by car and then I said, and then I went back home to get breakfast and then because labor usually takes a long time so I thought we'd have time but, I went home for breakfast and and went back to the hospital and she was already on the table in the delivery room table.

Part 3

Simon: She was quite fast. It took about three hours I guess which is on the quick side of delivery but when I saw here she was a total different person. She was like not a real human being because the pain was so hard, like delirious or subconcious but I think all woman are like that because I saw a couple other women and they looked like they were zombies. That's why I said, like they say women have a higher threshold for pain. It's true. I think men would die.

Part 4

Todd: Right. Right.

Simon: But having said that, it was quite a mind-boggling experience, you know, like all of a sudden there's this little putple lump in front of you and it goes to purple to skin color before your eyes. (Wow) Yeah, and yeah, it's awake. A human being.

Todd: So the baby cries instantly when comes out.

Simon: I don't think it really cries that much. It doesn't have that image that many of us have that the doctor slaps the, and then cries like a baby, but yeah, maybe it wimpers a little bit every now and then. It's for the most part, quiet.

Todd: Well, I'm sure it was an amazing day. That's cool. Thanks Simon.

Simon: Yeah, no problem.
