It’s Usually the Mother, Not the Father

My wife was in labor when the nurse said it was time to push.

She gave it everything she had until a fart, which from the sound and stench had obviously followed through, escaped.

She was mortified.

“Don’t worry,” I said, patting her head. “I’ve heard this kind of thing is perfectly natural during birth. Isn’t that right, nurse?”

“Yes,” said the nurse, gagging, “but it’s usually the mother, not the father!”
