Whether to enter the delivery room may be a question that many expectant fathers will consider. But as more and more expectant fathers decide to enter the delivery room with their wives, the father\’s role in the delivery room has become an issue that needs to be discussed. We asked some experts for some advice from expectant dads.
You may have heard that a husband in the delivery room can hold his wife\’s hand and whisper encouragement in her ear. This may happen, but in reality the doctor responds to this behavior by issuing an immediate command to the husband: \”Master, please step aside and sit in that chair over there.\”
Because the hearing and smell of pregnant women are much more sensitive than usual during delivery, the sound of opening the door or the sound in your mouth will affect the mother. Therefore, don\’t make too much noise while sitting.
This is when you go to the doctor to check how far your mother\’s cervix is dilated. This is not a good time for you to joke. Especially when the doctor is preparing for an examination, don\’t let your wife take a deep breath.
At this time, you can immediately turn on the camera and film your wife\’s delivery process. But be careful not to turn on the camera at the moment your wife goes into labor. You can film the process after it starts, but after the baby comes out, you have to resist the idea of watching the video playback, because the doctor will ask you to cut the baby\’s umbilical cord yourself, so if you tell the doctor to wait, I think the doctor will have a hard time accepting it. See if the camera works.
Finally, don\’t think you\’re the funniest person in the world and try to tell jokes or make fun of your child\’s physiology. For example, BB is born with yellow skin and needs to be sent to the lactation room immediately to receive anti-yellowing treatment. You also joked with your wife, \”Our baby should be called Xiao Huang\” or something like that.
Of course, you don’t have to worry too much about the things you can’t do as mentioned above. The most important thing is that the expectant father decides whether to enter the delivery room. Childbirth is not only a biological event but also a sociological event. Men\’s participation in childbirth activities can not only provide mothers with strong psychological support, but also deepen their understanding of the meaning of life. It will become fashionable in the future for the husband to enter the delivery room, cut the umbilical cord, and chat with the mother.
