Yeah, and one or the other of you tried to get me to eat something earlier, which I refused and almost snapped at someone about, because taking a break to eat then would've meant abandoning you to fight the contractions alone, and I would do anything for love, but I won't do that.

Yeah, i'm sorry about this.

Until that exchange, i hadn't quite realised how focused you were and needed to be, and had been thinking, "My job is to make sure Josh has things he needs so he can focus on Amy", so i was looking for times when things were un-intense enough that i could sit with Amy through a couple of contractions and you could get water, food, bathroom breaks, etc.

Really, the time to pester you to eat something was more like 17:00, and the argument was more like, "Grab a Clif bar now because later there will be an N-hour interval in which you really can't go anywhere". I didn't really catch on that that would happen (or that it would happen sometime other than during pushing) until we were already in that interval, though in retrospect it seems obvious.
