Hi girls,

Following on from the "was your partner as informed as you" thread, I am interested in seeing whether many of you have decided it's best for DH/DP NOT to be in the labour ward with you. Ie, this was a planned decision, not that he was late, things progressed too quickly, etc.

How did your discussion to arrive at this conclusion pan out?

Was there disappointment on either side?

Has anyone had DH not there for the labour, just the birth?

Interested to see if it happens much these days.

BTW, if you want to know why I'm considering this, please see my post in abovementioned thread.
