I pushed so hard when I was giving birth that my eye bulged out – it’s more common than you think
A NEW mom has revealed yet another terrifying complication that can happen when you’re giving birth.
Bethany Collins, 23, spoke about how her eye actually popped out of her head when she gave birth to her first child.
In the clip, the young mom shared a picture of herself at the hospital, where her left eye bulged out of her head after she had given birth.
However, during labor, it seemed like both of her eyes had been affected.
Despite the complication, the proud mom was over the moon to have finally met her little bundle of joy.
She noted: “Now, I have Miss Phoebe.”
As for her eyes? All was well after six weeks and they had gone back to normal.
She also didn’t suffer any long-term consequences from the occurrence.
Despite how unusual it might seem, the incident is common and can happen to any person giving birth.
Eyes bulging are due to the intense pressure that pushing during labor can cause. Some have even been known to burst.

After watching her clip, fellow mothers decided to share their own experiences.
One person wrote: “Omg! My eyes bleed because I pushed so hard. I looked so scary.”
A second shared: “This is why I closed my eyes.”
However, her experience seemed to have scared off others from having children.
“Reasons to not get pregnant,” mentioned a third.
And while one mom was concerned about her eyes after labor, another was more worried about her looks.
Despite just having gone through a c-section, she took the time to put on a full face of makeup.
While still wearing her hospital gown, she sat on the bed to tie up her hair and start the beautification process.
Once she was done, she explained applying her makeup made her feel a little better after giving birth but that didn’t stop some people from leaving negative comments.
