A Woman Kicks Husband Out of Delivery Room After He Pulls Cruel TikTok Prank While She’s in Labo

Imagine being deep in labor – sweating, crying, exhausted and instead of offering comfort, your husband decides it’s time for a TikTok-style prank.

That’s exactly what happened to one 23-year-old Redditor who spent eight painful hours in labor, only for her husband to pull a “fart prank” inspired by YouTube videos.

She had warned him for months not to joke around during childbirth, but he didn’t listen. The moment he went for the prank, she snapped and kicked him out of the delivery room.

He missed the birth of their baby, and what came next was a storm of anger, guilt, and family drama that’s now dividing Reddit.

Was she too harsh, or did he have it coming? Let’s get into the full story.

AITA for kicking my husband out of the delivery room?

I (23F) and my husband (24M) just had our first baby. My husband was so excited and was super supportive and caring throughout the pregnancy.

The only this is that he became slightly obsessed with watching YouTube and TikTok videos of husbands pulling pranks on their wives while in labor.

I didn’t mind at first but then he started casually joking about doing things he saw in the videos saying it would be funny.

I clearly stated my distaste for them and asked him not to do anything like what he saw.

He agreed and continued to joke about it time to time but I brushed it off since I trusted him and thought nothing would come of it.

The day of the delivery came and I had been in labor for 8 hrs (12 hr total labor).

I had just finished another round of contractions when my husband let out the loudest fart, turned to me and said, “what the hell have you been eating OP?

It smells disgusting” I immediately recognized that as one of the pranks in the videos.

Outraged at him not honoring what I asked him not to do I demanded that he leave the room.

He started yo arguing saying it was just a joke but I insisted and luckily the nurse helped get him out.

I went through the last 4 hrs of labor by myself since my family lives out of state and I’m not close to my MIL.

After the delivery I told the nurse he could come back into the room and he was fuming.

He started demanding that I tell him why I kicked him out. I calmly told him the reason but he was pissed.

He hasn’t talked to me in a week. His mom is taking his side saying that I was a complete b__ch for kicking him out.

Normally he will defend me from her but this time he completely agreed.

I might be the a__hole because I know how much he was looking forward to being there for the birth of our first kid

and especially when he got to cut the cord, but I still kicked him out and refused to let him back in.

The nursed asked a few times if I wanted him back but each time I said no.

AITA for kicking out my husband after a stupid prank he agreed not to do?

Edit: I just wanted to thank everyone for all the support and reassurance on here and wanted to answer some questions and give an update

QUESTIONS: he has been bonding with the baby but not quite helping.

When he felt like holding her he would just take her from my arms or if MIL was around he would ask her to get the baby.

And I know I posted this answer previously but I wanted to put it here in case anyone missed it.

If he had been apologetic in anyway I would have let him come back into the delivery room.

And the nurse check on him but he was sulking and complaining that I did that.

UPDATE: It’s been a rough first week but thankfully my mother arrived this morning to help out.

I talked to my husband (as best I could since he is still upset and ignoring me) and told him how I was feeling

(I have been feeling depressed and anxious since we brought the baby home) and that I understood why he was upset but asked him to please see my side.

He told me that I had no right to kick him out and that our daughter would come to hate me one day for having him miss her birth.

I started crying and begged him to please talk things through instead of saying things out of anger.

He refused and said I was under his roof so he had the final say and called me a c*** for kicking him out of the delivery room.

I didn’t say anything else to him I just started packing myself and the baby’s things and planned on leaving.

He yelled telling me that I couldn’t take anything he paid for (I haven’t worked since the start of the pandemic)

I just took the baby and told my mom we were leaving. We are staying at a motel and will drive to my parents house tomorrow.

Sorry for the long update but I wanted everyone to know the outcome!

Expert Opinion

Giving birth isn’t the time for comedy. Yet this husband, obsessed with online prank videos, decided to test his luck at the worst possible moment. D

espite his wife’s clear boundary – “no pranks during labor” – he went ahead and made a fart joke while she was pushing through unbearable pain.

After hours of contractions, she couldn’t take it anymore. She asked him to leave. He stormed out and later gave her the silent treatment for days, backed by his mother who called her dramatic and disrespectful.

Things got so tense that after one cruel argument, the new mom took her baby and left to stay in a motel for peace.

Let’s be honest – this wasn’t just a bad joke. It was a huge lack of respect. Childbirth is one of the hardest physical experiences a person can go through.

Research from the National Center for Biotechnology Information shows that 68% of women feel emotionally overwhelmed during labor, and emotional support from a partner is critical for their well-being.

It broke trust at a time when she needed care, not jokes. According to a 2021 study in the Journal of Social and Personal Relationships, when someone crosses a partner’s boundaries during stressful times, it can deeply damage trust and connection.

Even worse, the husband sided with his mother instead of apologizing. That’s a red flag. When a partner chooses validation from others over showing empathy, it often leads to long-term resentment.

Relationship expert Dr. John Gottman explains that, “Trust is rebuilt through accountability and empathy, not defensiveness.”

Instead of saying sorry, the husband doubled down with name-calling and control, telling her she was “under his roof.” That’s not partnership – that’s power play.

What should have happened? A sincere apology, emotional support, and an open talk about boundaries.

If the husband had shown care and ownership, they might have started healing. But without that, her decision to leave was both brave and necessary for her mental health and safety.

Life Lesson

Boundaries matter most during stressful times. When someone tells you what they need in a vulnerable moment, ignoring it sends a loud message: “My comfort matters more than yours.”

For anyone facing a similar problem, the lesson is simple: listen to your partner.

Respect their wishes, especially in moments that mean everything to them. If you make a mistake, apologize – quickly and sincerely.

And for new moms like this Redditor, standing your ground isn’t being dramatic; it’s protecting your peace and your baby’s well-being.

Counseling or open conversations might help later, but for now, choosing distance might be the healthiest option.

Let’s dive into the reactions from Reddit:

Some were quick to support the mom, saying she was absolutely right to kick him out.

efgrigby − NTA If he was really excited about seeing his child be born, he would have honored your request.

I can't imagine where this trend originated? "You know what would be funny?

If when my wife/SO has been in labor for hours, in pain, exhausted, being torn apart from the inside I played a prank on her."

"Wouldn't it be hysterical if instead of giving her the support she needs, I humiliated her?"

That's your SO. He thinks like a 5yo, and his mother, who has given birth herself, says that's ok.

That means in her eyes nothing he does, no matter who it hurts, is wrong. She will always support him over you.

That invalidates her opinion in any argument you have with your husband.

That she is even allowed an opinion in a private matter between the two of you is another issue.

Do not feel guilty for robbing him of this experience, you did not, he threw it away all by himself.

Magnanimoe − NTA. You were passing a small human out of your body. It's painful and scary, and you have the right to decide EVERYTHING in that situation.

You told him not to do it. He was selfish and did it anyway. He felt his needs were more important than yours.

He faced appropriate consequences, but still doesn't want to admit he was wrong even though his bad choice meant you had to deliver without his emotional support.

I hope he grows up soon for you and the child's sake. Sound like his mama is an enabler.

lassmanac − NTA. Life is not a series of 30 second clips. You wanted a present supportive partner and he blew it.

You specifically asked NOT to do something, and he did it anyway.

Time and again we see in this sub someone saying "it's just a joke." No. No it isn't.

It's a complete disregard for your loved one's boundaries and a total lack of respect for the faith your loved one has put in to you.

"Just a joke" is very very thin veil for being a complete asshat.

Others were harsher toward the husband: “He had one job – support you during birth and he chose TikTok clout instead.”

gabbydearest91 − NTA He hasn't spoken to you in a week since you gave birth to his child?

I'm so sorry that you were expecting one child and were surprised with two. Too bad they couldn't have seen this coming on an ultra sound.

[Reddit User] − NTA. When you are pushing a whole other human out of your vagina, that is not the time for pranks.

That's the time for ice chips, support, etc. Not f__king TikTok. Good Lord.

[Reddit User] − Oh for…who in this world thinks that the time to prank their wife is when she’s in labor?

That’s just so damned n__ty and selfish. Labor is *pain. * It’s a ton of pain and tearing and it goes on forever.

I’d like to see one of these damned fathers get “pranked” while they’re passing a kidney stone and see if they still think it’s all a hoot. NTA!

A few people tried to defend him, calling it a “stress reaction” or saying he “just didn’t think it through.” 

TallButShort9 − NTA. You were in the process of pushing an entire being out of you,

if anything he should be apologizing for putting unneeded stress on you and breaking your trust.

Out of curiosity, if he had sincerely apologized after the prank would you have let him back into the delivery room?

[Reddit User] − Former labor nurse here, there is a saying that a midwife would say to us nurses that we acknowledge to be true-

"when she gives birth it will be the most vulnerable position that she will ever be in.

They are trusting you (nurses and everyone else in that room) to make the BEST decision on her behalf.

"Making jokes when you told him not too- was not making good decisions. NTA.

marifullofgrace − NTA. I wonder if his mom even knows the entire story.

msmozzarella − NTA. i believe the children who frequent tiktok refer to this as “f__k around and find out”

This delivery room drama turned what should have been a beautiful memory into a painful lesson about respect and boundaries.

The husband thought a joke would lighten the mood, but instead, it cost him the chance to see his child born and damaged his marriage.

Should she forgive him and try to rebuild, or was this the final straw in a partnership that lacked respect?

One thing’s clear – when love and laughter mix with poor timing, the result can be anything but funny.
