Hi

a strange story.

I know all the men are there for us now in the delivery room. my partner is a fainter and although he wants to hold my hand etc he is very worried that he will faint during the delivery and cause a hassle to everybody. doctor etc, OB.. which he does not want to do. if anyone has seen coneheads, (movie) thats what I see him doing.

He thinks he can run in and out if that makes sense. I want him there of course but I agree he will fall down on me. He gets fainty watching me get blood tests. one good thing is once he faints he is okay after a few minutes and doesnt faint again.

He is not afraid of anything, its just a phobia from childhood (long story)

does anyone think its safe and acceptable to let him pop in and out etc or will that be a hassle too as I have no idea of this except from tv, as its my first baby.

he is way more scared of it all than me.

thanks all

gill
