The next time you push a full sized baby out of a tiny hole in your body
(forever altering your body and causing lots of tearing and pain), then you get a vote as to who is going to be in the yewting room. Give me a break.

Expecting fathers: delivery room - yes or no?
Mr Douglas Levison

You are the first "man" I have ever heard of that has opted to leave the room.

I was in the room. I would have caught the baby if given the chance.

When we were discussing what we would need to take to the hospital I joked that

Wives never think we're funny. Why is that?

It's all about timing. During labor, that joke probably doesn't seem as funny
Ashtrash

It is a mystery. because girlfriends think we are hilarious.

Not to mention that historically the mother has been there for the birth

I would also include a doula if the women wants one.

if your wife's cool with it, then you're good. You owe her many diaper changes

You don't know by now that what she says is not what she means.

Wait a minute... you let your mother in law go in and you stay out?

That's bull. The MIL can pay the delivery bills then.
Mister P
7/22/14 2:01pm
i think he means the mother that's having the child
fattycoug
7/22/14 2:02pm
I would argue that.
Mister P

why? i'll probably never be in a delivery room due to my ragin infertility but

It's a bonding moment for the couple. Mom had her time.

Agreed. Too many social inductions and too much litigation.
