My Husband Accused Me of Embarrassing Him While I Was Birthing Our Child, So I Taught Him a Lesson
My husband Owen and I were thrilled to welcome our baby, Liam. Our families were supportive, and the pregnancy went well. However, childbirth was painful, and Owen made remarks about my yelling, which hurt deeply.
One evening, while Liam slept, I brought up Owen’s comments during labor. He admitted to saying I was embarrassing him, but his response was defensive. His attitude shocked me, revealing a side of him I didn’t like. I locked myself in the bedroom with Liam, reflecting on his character.
