Partner birth: give birth with a spouse

“We gave birth to a child!”, – shouts dad, who was present during childbirth. Finally, a man got a real opportunity to give birth to a baby. And no miracles or floor change operations. It’s just enough to be near a difficult for a wife, deciding in advance that you will have a partner birth.

Yes or not?

Untrown disputes are still underway on this subject. How, a man is present at childbirth?! Not supposed! Yes, he will have a sexual desire for his wife, and he will not be able to withstand, and he will only interfere, and his wife will be shy and much more – many representatives of the weaker sex say. Yes, many husbands themselves do not mind sitting and translating at this moment at home, expecting a call from his wife. But in fact, everything is not so scary. If the husband agrees, then he should give him a chance to give birth to a baby together. Partnerships are adopted in many civilized countries, and in some they are even mandatory. So why are there so many questions if there are many more pluses than minuses. Maybe from ignorance?

Partner birth with a desired partner

The partner does not have to be a husband. It can be any native person or girlfriend. The main thing is that this person is pleasant to you, to be active, attentive, caring, have at least minimal help skills in childbirth.

Why do you need partner birth?

As you know, childbirth is a fairly long process, and the medical staff of the maternity hospital is not able to be constantly with you. It is the partner that will be with you this time, distract from pain, massage, control your condition, call at the right moment the obstetrician.

Doctors say that the women in childbirth, next to whom a loved one is located, the process of birth is easier and faster, the likelihood of complications is reduced. Indeed, the psychological factor is of considerable importance and often we underestimate it, focusing on visible things.

Young dads do not immediately get used to the born baby. But fathers participating in partnerships accept the baby easier, begin to take care faster and have a great responsibility.

In addition, you will be calmer for the birth of a man, dad will observe him and understands him while postpartum procedures will be carried out with you.

How to be with minuses?

“A man cannot withstand such a sight”. But he does not come to the circus. As one real man said: “If my wife should withstand this, then I, a man, can not?”. In addition, her husband will have a certain function in partnerships, he will be busy, will worry and feel like a man who can at least help at least at a difficult moment, and the more difficult the birth, the less he will think about his feelings.

It is not necessary to attend a man at the last stage of childbirth, the main thing is to attend the long stage of the opening of the cervix. And in the end he can come out. But usually doctors point him to the corner of the room behind the head of the wife’s bed so that he could not see the details.

It would be nice to go through a school of preparation for partnerships before childbirth, so that there are no surprises for the spouse.

And yet ..

Partnerships will benefit you both and bring together if the desire to give birth together is mutual. Do not force your husband, crushing his conscience and giving examples, because otherwise, this can only have negative consequences.
