    bollocks? not so!!

    i was in the delivery room when MINE were born too ... and i can assure you that i found it as far from "it's not that stressful" as it is possible to get!!

    There is no such thing as bad weather; only inappropriate clothing!

    I reckon it's good having the bloke there just to see how physically demanding it is for the woman. Before men were allowed to be in "assisting" their wife (well, in the old days before the term partner, and certainly before - shock horror "girlfriend") they probably thought the new arrival came out looking all pink, clean and asleep! And that the woman managed to do it without a hair out of place rather than looking like a red sweaty swearing madwoman who cursed having a penis anywhere near her hahahaha

    Should I ever be a dad there is no fuckin way that I want to see the mother of my childs vagina being destroyed, by someone who is going to cost me my soul and all of the money I have for the next 18 years.

    It'd be like getting kicked in the nuts, then while you are on your knees in pain, getting taken up the bum by some 8 foot tall 500lb monstrosity named big bob.

    FWIW I was a c-section baby, 9lb 10oz.

    The biggest crap I have ever taken would be lucky to have weighed in at 1lb and that was enough...

    After watching the wife go through pure hell and agony for 15 hours to push out the first born, It blew me away a year later when you told me she wanted to do it all again.

    I was of course looking foward to the frequency of sex, But she got pregnant almost straight away.

    I've been sulking ever since.

    From a pioneer of water birthing and an advocate of homebirth, his beef and the article should be titled against delivery rooms being de-facto. In delivery rooms the mother generally has fewer choices about who becomes involved in the birth.

    If all goes well (and it does over 85% of the time - local stats) then mothers have much more say in how it goes, and who will be there. I guess if homebirth becomes more normalised again perhaps some mums will choose for their man not to be there, especially if mothers choose a doula or midwives alone for support. I doubt it though - I know of no partnered mums who birth at home who wouldn't have them there?

    Sure the hospital is still needed, but even there, so much could be done to make the whole thing a lot more respectful. I know several women nigh on destroyed (at the time and for some time) by the cascade of intervention and the brush off they got from hospital.

    I was at the birth for our first and it was bloody brilliant, in the pool too :-) Next one is part cooked :-)

    If your woman wants you there, man-up and get to it. Your job includes making sure only those she wants to be involved are involved, home or hospital.

    p.s. I'm sure my wife was talking about men getting an oxytocin rush from being at the birth too...

    Well I just think you have got this all wrong!

    At least the woman gets to lie down! Standing for hours is absolute agony.

    The only chair that the man is offered is right down at the business end. "erm..... I think I'd rather stand.

    And as for staying up at the hand holding end. Think again!

    "Hey you, stop standing around there doing nothing and grab this leg"

    "But, but......."

    "NOW !!!!!"

    "Yes Mam"

    Then try not fainting!

    AND AND AND........ It uis far more painful watching someone you love in pain than being in pain yourself.

    But seriously, I have seen it 5 times now and wouldn't miss witnessing the miricle of life for anything.

    Of course us guys do get to see something that the ladies never can

    Lol. I agree that it is hard to see someone you love in pain and not being able to do much about it - especially knowing you're half the reason she's going through it

    I was with my sister when she gave birth to my niece. Tbh, I'm kinda glad I'd already had my two by then and wasn't planning on any more!

    Don't know how you guys do it. (But I still reckon you get away muuuuuuch light than us )

    All I know about it is that you need:

    Lots of towels/sheets

    Lots of boiling water

    Television has been AWESOME for my education!

    Well, clearly I have got most of it sussed, and being a dairy cocky's son, I have delivered lots of calves.
    Do they mind you taking baling twine in to the delivery suites?

    A workmate watched his partner give birth. Afterwards he said to the doctor "can you put a couple of stitches in it to tighten it back up again?"...

    He related the next part of the story as "being escorted out of the theatre..."
    I thought doctors had a sense of humour, after all, look at the enjoyment they get from burning couches when they are at Otago uni!

    Perhaps a couple of hay bales would make a comfy bed?
