New Mom Roasts Husband By Turning Things He Said During Childbirth Into Inspirational Quotes

What's parenting without humor?

Many of us have said it's better to laugh than to cry about a tough situation.


That's definitely a vibe new mom and beauty Instagram influencer, Jessica Perez, was channeling in one of her latest Instagram reels.

While giving birth, Perez lived through some of the same experiences many moms live through: changed plans, a difficult labor and an uncooperative husband.

Movies and books always seem to depict husbands and partners as these bedrocks of support, complete with cuddles, snacks and the right thing to say, every time. But that just isn't the reality most of the time.

In Perez's case, her husband was clearly ready for this whole thing to be over with, so they could get onto the next part: sleeping. (And maybe parenthood, too.)

To make the best of the situation, Perez later took to Instagram to share her experience with childbirth. But she didn't just share an image of her giving birth or a detailed post about all the hardships she experienced.

Instead, she selected phrases she remembered her husband saying while waiting for her to give birth and she transformed them into inspirational quotes.

Perez captioned the post:

"Kent. You're the wind beneath my wings. You're strength gives me strength."

Here are a few of our favorites from the Instagram reel.

Who do you think hurts more? The woman in labor or...

"At least you get the comfy bed. I have to sleep on this tiny couch."

Priorities, man.

"Are you almost done? The cafeteria closes soon and they have taco bowls tonight."

Dude, same.

"My back is killing me."

Sometimes you have to be able to laugh at yourself, your partner and the tough situations you go through together.

In fact, being able to do that can be a sign of the strongest relationships.
