I'm with ya there Racer. There is just something that happens to an expecting father when taking the wife to the delivery room.

In my younger years I had trouble with my temper, but that would not have ended any nicer if it happened with my to trips to the hospital.

With my first child, the wife went into labor and called the doctor to see how long we should wait. He said when the contraction get to 10 minutes apart come on down and well be waiting. My wife replied to him they were 5 min apart now.

Welllll I guess you better hurry. I started out doing about 5 over the limit, but with each contraction I bumped the cruise up 2 MPH. Aint no way I'm delivering this thing my self. This was in 1995 so cell phones wern't very popular.

By the time I reaches the town where the hospital is I was doing 85, even through the 45mph zones. Got to the hospital and started walking into the entrance when her water broke.

A nurse standing by grabed a wheel chair and in one movement, scooped her up and took of for the elevator.
I remained at the check in to fill out some papers, the whole time the receptionest was saying " almost done, you can go shortly", she was in a great hurry. I informed her that I wasn't in such a hurry now, I got her here and now the pressure is on you.

Stayed with the wife through the delivery. Man what a wonderful thing to see first hand a child being born. What a miracle.
