:unsure:

I think that was in the olden days. Last year I was in the delivery room, chatting to teh missus while either holding her hand or sitting on this cool birthing ball all the while telling the midwives exactly what they should be doing.

Actually, I was shitting myself and pretty quiet the whole time, not to mention almost passing out when I saw the afterbirth. The point I'm making is that they did their best to make sure I felt involved and kept me constantly updated - rather than ushering me out into the corridor to do some reading of novels. The time seemed to fly by, despite me getting no sleep for 36 hours or whatever.

If it is baby #1 then the best advice I can give is to take plenty of tissues :cry: :cry: :D

I can just see myself there saying "Hurry up babe, I'm on the last chapter!" :lol: :D

I don't think I'll be allowed to read a book. :huh: As manker says, they seem to want to get the fathers really involved these days. Personally, I'd be happy waiting outside in the corridor, or even in the pub.. :schnauz:

I'd prefer they got it all cleaned up tidy before they presented it to me... :dabs:

Everyone says that I'm gonna cry my eyes out when it's all over. I'm not convinced... :mellow:

Just you wait till she grabs ya nuts instead of your hand,that'll do it :)

NHS freebie!!!

NHS FTW :01:

However, I know I will be paying all the bills for the next 18 years... :mellow:

I watched all three of my children being born. I wish my wife would of left me out of the delivery room. Don't underestimate the yuck factor. It's fecking surreal.

I don't recommend cutting the umbilical cord yourself. I tried shirking the duty myself. (it seems to be a custom here.) My wife insisted.

Ughhhh! It felt like an alien penis and it was as tough as leather.

Congrats, Barbie. I think you'll do alright as a papa. :)

Peace bd

Yeah, I'm going to get offered the cord to cut, :blink: but I draw the line at eating the placenta... :sick:
