Would you be confident for your husband to watch the birth of your child?

I was recently in the room but stayed up at the top end. No amount of money could have made me take a look down the business section..

while I wait outside in the waiting room. Once, it is all done, I will gone inside to thank the Doctors/Nurses and shake their hands for a job well done.

Watching your wife give birth?

Indeed

You do realise it could be a very very long wait sat there alone? Also some will not actually have a waiting room, you could be sat in the corridor hearing all the noises from every other room!

So you recommend going to pub and waiting for it all to blow over?

And if she laid a log while giving birth? *Chortles*

I'd want him in the room and if he chose to look than that's his choice, after all it would be our child not just mine

I asked my husband to wait outside although he is a doctor.

I don't want to witness my Mrs face the probably most traumatic experience of her life.

Id rather not, but if the woman insisted id bow down to their wishes.

Also get a chance to do this joke (For it to work the mother in law needs to be present)

So the birth isnt going very well and the mother in law bends over her daughter and says "X, just so you know you are my favourite daughter"
No obviosuly I have to say something, so I bends over and says "and X, just so you know girlfriend wise you are definitely top 5"

he should be advised what he's in for if he looks. it's his choice, but this has been going on since time immemorial and it is known by the midwives that men, or anyone, can find it traumatizing to see that.

I think he would know what he's in for, it's obviously not going to be pretty

So you recommend going to pub and waiting for it all to blow over?
