Need some Homer Simpson quotes that somehow relates to men being pregnant, birthing children, or men dealing with childbirth.
I'm doing a short paper on Couvade Syndrome aka sympathetic pregnancy. I have been challenged to include a quote from Homer in all my papers and I'm coming up blank. Help me hive mind!

Best answer: (From the same page, there's also this:
Marge: Well, I've had the same nausea and craving for pancake mix I did with the other kids
Homer: Yeah, and I have the same tightness in my chest and the sweating I always get)

It wasn't delivered as being about pregnancy, but the classic "Just because I don't CARE doesn't mean I don't UNDERSTAND" fits here.

Best answer: Paragon's seems to be the best fit based on your topic, but I wanted to re-quote it here so you get it exactly right (incorrect Simpsons quotations are a pet peeve of mine).
Homer: Do you really think you're pregnant?
Marge: Well, I have the same nausea and craving for pancake mix I had with the other kids.
Homer: Yeah, and I have the same tightness in my chest and profuse sweating I always did.

Bart : Gee ... Sorry for being born.
Homer : I've been waiting for so long to hear that.
...and...
Homer : Kids are great, Appu. You can teach them to hate the things you hate and they practically raise themselves now-a-days, you know, with the internet and all.

Best answer: Homer : I can't fake an interest in this, and I'm an expert at faking an interest in your kooky projects.
Marge : What kooky projects?
Homer : You know, the painting class, the first aid course, the whole Lamaze thing. (From Streetcar Named Marge)
Some good quotes from I Married Marge, thanks to SNPP
Homer: Yeah, sure, for you, a baby's all fun and games. For me, it's diaper changes and midnight feedings.
Lisa: Doesn't Mom do that stuff?
Homer: Yeah, but I have to hear about it.
Dr. Hibbert: Well, uh, Miss Bouvier, I think we've found the reason why you've been throwing up in the morning. Congratulations.
Homer: D'oh!
(when Bart is born)
Marge: Homey, isn't he beautiful?
Homer: Hey, as long as he's got eight fingers and eight toes, he's fine by me.

Homer: Ah, another perfect day in my perfect life with my perfect job.
Wiggum: [driving by] Hey, just heard the news over the squawk box.
That's nice work, Homer.
Homer: Thank you, thank you very much. It is nice work.
Apu: Oh, Mr. Simpson, I have just heard about the little bundle of
joy. Congratulations, sir!
Homer: It's true, the bundle is little, but I'm not in it for the
money.
Moe: [sly] Hey, Homer! Way to get Marge pregnant. [laughs]
Homer: This is getting very abstract, but thank you: I do enjoy
working at the bowling alley.
