my DH is the same and almost fainted in my caeser but the staff were really good and just took him out for a bit to sit down and brought him back as DS was born (I barely noticed cause I was too busy spewing sorry if TMI). He is sure with a full labour he'd be just as bad if not worse so in many ways would rather I just had another c/sect. is there someone else you can have there also in case you need someone while your DH is out of the room (says me who should be thinking along the same lines if I VBAC)?? But with respect to it being an issue with staff talk to them but I'm sure they've dealt with it on more than one occassion and may even expect it.
