Childbirth pain "a myth" says prospective father

A Leeds man claimed on Monday that childbirth is "not all that painful." Jacob Murphy, 37, was responding to his four-month pregnant girlfriend's worries. Fiona Sullivan, 36, had been leafing through a copy of "What to Expect when you're Expecting" when she expressed her concerns. "I don't mean to be funny," he told her, "but they do give you lots of drugs." Leeds General Hospital would confirm today only that a 37 year old man was in a critical condition.
