So going off all the birth related threads, particularly Jules one about whether you watched your baby being birthed heres another one :
Did your partner take a peek while you were pushing out your babe??


Steve did with both our older 2. He never said he wanted to during the pregnancies, and he never said he didn't want to but when the moment came our midwife asked if he wanted to see the baby be born and so he went down the business end.
With Hudson he couldn't because he was birthed underwater and I was leaning over the edge of the pool. I *think* he was standing up trying to see what was happening but there was 2 midwives trying to move me so they could see if the baby had been partly birthed or not, so Steve kind of got pushed behind them.
At the time I couldn't care less what he was seeing but now I kind of go EEK!! He saw all of that!! Oh well, he hasn't been scarred by it

My sisters DH said all during my sisters pregnancy that no way was he going down the business end. He said he didn't want to see and my sister was pleased with that. Now he regrets not watching his baby be born and he has said that when they have another child he is definately going to watch s/he be born. Don't think my sister is thrilled!!

Tillys father wasn't there, by my choice.
However I had a great audience, my mum and sister watched tilly come into the world. My dad was also there holding my hand, his eyes firmly on the clock above my head!!

There was also 1 student and 2 midwives present.

Come to think of it, a lot of people came into that birth suite.. More people saw me naked during childbirth than throughout the rest of my entire life so far!!! Lol.

Yep DH did with both of ours. He wasn't "down that end of the bed", but was standing next to me the whole time so could see everything that was going on.
I only jst found out recently that he saw DS1's head crowning... I was so out of it I never even realised!

Yep, both times

With Jack, I required an episitomy, so he watched them cut me to help me to push Jack out . He said it looked AND sounded horrible !!

With Rihanna, he watched down there aswell. It didn't bother me at all. He has every right IMO to watch our babies be born

DH watched both our bubs being born, he kept telling me to look with the mirror or feel their heads but I couldnt do it, however I practically delivered Lexie anyway after her head was out I took over

Yeah pretty sure he saw all of them being born.
My cousin also saw Audrey be born

couldnt drag my DH away!! even when i lost my plug he asked to look (GROSS!!) lol, the whole thing fascinated him!! The midwife offered for him to deliver Hamish but he thought she was joking and didnt... this time he has already told the ob he wants to!! His mum and two sisters are gonna be there this time, they are gonna be sooo shocked lol he usually has a really weak stomach.

Before Alesea was born the thought of looking down there almost made DP sick... But he ended up watching my mother also watched and I think anyone in the world could have watched and I wouldn't have cared lol!

With DS1 he stayed holding my hand but he watched DS2 and DD being born and then DS3 he had to deliver him as there was only me and him in the room !!
