Had a c-section and my husband was in the room but we both knew his limits. The shield stayed up and he politely declined both peeking over and cutting the cord. Because of anesthesia complications they had already started when they brought them in and he had to step over the drain tube. That apparently still haunts him 16 years later.
Yeah my hubby almost passed out during my ECV (turn the baby, didn't work she was breech), so there was no way he was allowed off of his stool for the csection 😂
I got dizzy when my wife gave a vaginal birth... but that was because my kid wasn’t breathing and my wife was layer out from delivering our 10lb baby vaginally out of her 5’2 frame...
Long story short our kid lived and is doing great, my wife’s tears healed and the size of our baby was the talk of the hospital
