Especially when we get the first glimpse into the real nature of our wives after they've found themselves pregnant for the second time and it is also the first time he has stood beside her through the whole delivery process.

That's postpartum depression for absolute sure.

He must suffer alone and dare-not mention the raving lunatic of a woman he had to pacify at the beginning of the pregnancy.
