I could write one of those from the alternate POV. Three years ago my rondeau celebrating my daughter and her college acceptance, https://medium.com/illumination/a-fathers-pride-and-joy-6838f4d059e6, started with these two lines
Earth angel arrived like a cannon shot
Daddy’s bare skin hands caught without a thought
The explanation of those lines was:
"Liz and I had a very emotionally intelligent obstetrician. We each assumed I would be in the delivery room but not part of the action, until in the room after a few minutes of pushing attended to by him and the nurse, he said, “Ok Greg, take a leg” and I went in without hesitation. Had he told us of his intent beforehand, Liz may have said “I don’t want him seeing that!” and I may have had to defer.
Active labor was long and even after the episiotomy, the doctor said he might have to take her in for a cesarean. When he later said he was giving up on the normal delivery, Liz said “no f’ing way” and gave one last push that only a desperate mother could muster and Sofia shot out flying through the air and my ungloved hands caught her from hitting the floor."
