I thought you were happy about having a baby.' I was happy in the way that I would be happy if the captain of an aircraft in which I was travelling announced that he had succeeded in restarting one engine after both had failed. Pleased that I would now probably survive, but shocked that the situation had arisen in the first place, and expecting a thorough investigation into the circumstances.

The quote expresses a complex emotion regarding the prospect of becoming a parent. While the speaker acknowledges a sense of relief, akin to surviving a near-catastrophe, they also convey a deep discomfort with the circumstances surrounding the situation. This mixed feeling suggests that although there is a positive outcome, it does not erase the initial shock or concern that prompted this reaction.

The analogy of an aircraft engine failure highlights the precariousness of the situation and the need for accountability and understanding of the dynamics that led to it. Like the captain's success in restoring an engine, the prospect of having a baby brings a sense of survival, yet the speaker remains cautious and reflective about the challenges ahead.
