We all know that giving birth is a unique experience for every woman, but what happens when a husband feels the need to correct his wife’s version of their child’s birth story? In a recent online post, a man shared how his wife told her friends she had a natural, pain-free birth, when in reality, she had an epidural and an emergency episiotomy. The husband couldn’t help but call her out on the lie in front of her friends, leading to an awkward and tense situation.
