A father-to-be, named as Ben, 29, has fainted in the delivery room at Birmingham Women's Hospital while he was accompanying his girlfriend, Amy, 23, in labour to witness the precious moment. 

The process has been captured and Ben accepted media's interview saying he was too nervous to see the situation.

Ben felt calm at the beginning but watching Amy's pain and focus on her contraction made him dramatically collapse to the floor without a sign.

Amy shouted, "he's passed out!" when she saw her partner collapsed.

The couple then described the feelings when knowing Amy's pregnant. Amy said, "He's been extremely emotional, and that is nice to see." 

Ben agrees, "It's shocked me, how my emotions changed. You've [Amy] turned me into a right softie - I can't even watch telly without crying now.

"I just feel that I've got to be strong for her, so I need to man up a bit to be fair."

Amy continued to give birth without Ben and their daughter, Amber-Rose has come to the world very soon after. 

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Rudy Gobert had 15 points and 17 rebounds as the Minnesota Timberwolves defeated the Golden State Warriors 108-83 on Monday night in a game missing much of its usual star power.

The Warriors were playing without starters Stephen Curry (knee) and Draymond Green (back), while Minnesota’s Anthony Edwards was a late scratch to rest an recurring right foot injury.

Julius Randle led Minnesota with 18 points and Bones Hyland chipped in 17. Naz Reid and Donte DiVincenzo each scored 15 for the Timberwolves, who snapped a five-game losing streak, their longest skid since they lost five straight in December 2022.

Quinten Post led Golden State with 13 points. Brandin Podziemski scored 12 points and grabbed seven rebounds, while Gui Santos had 11 points and 10 rebounds for the Warriors, who shot a season-low 23.1% (9 for 39) on 3-pointers.

One night after the Warriors snapped Minnesota's 103-game streak of scoring at least 100 points — the third-longest in NBA history — the Timberwolves overcame a cold start from the floor and 23 turnovers.

Minnesota took control of the game with a 21-4 run to end the second quarter. Randle scored 10 points in the run, which gave the Timberwolves a 53-38 halftime lead.

The Timberwolves started out cold, making just two of their first 12 shots and missing seven of their first eight 3-pointers. That opened the door for a 13-0 Golden State run and an early 16-8 lead for the Warriors.

Hyland led a Minnesota surge with three transition layups and Reid's first 3-pointer helped the Timberwolves take a 21-20 lead after one quarter.

Warriors: Visit Utah on Wednesday.

Timberwolves: Face the Mavericks in Dallas on Wednesday.
