Ok, I am due in May (yay, it's a girl!!!!!!!) with my first baby, who by the way has the most beutiful U/S photos you have ever seen! Anyway, my husband is super squemish (very much on the wimpy side) to the point of utter ridiculousness. The whole idea of pregnancy and childbirth grosses him out so much he refuses to even speak of it. Ticks me off, but that's another story. When the subject of C-sections came up he just lost it, I thought he was going to :barf01: just hearing the word. He says if I have to have one, he does not want to be in the room at all because he will faint.
My question is: how many guys, who think they are going to faint, actually do? I mean, do some guys get in there thinking it is going to be horrible and then are so overwhelmed by the birth of their child that it is not as bad as they imagined? I am pretty upset about his comment and my first instinct was to tell him to suck it up and be a man, but then I felt selfish and then I felt that I had a right to be selfish as the worst of it would be happening to me and not him. Oh, those wonderful hormones!! Ha ha. :rotfl:
Should I let him off the hook or have him come in and hope for the best? (if I have to have one)
