This thread is still going???
Get good insurance and get a nice big room. Not sure what the deal is with having the mom in there or not. Seems like this is an overthinking it kind of issue.
shite if its that crucial, facetime your wife's cooch so everyone can see in 1080p.
I was kidding the last part. Don't do that.

Nope. I always have someone like yourself doing that.

Of course the downside was that the second came so fast that the doctor didn't make it either and yours truly had to catch.
Damn, your wife must have a big ole hatchet wound if they're just falling out like that.

I must have missed that, however your argument has evolved to what i said in the last post, as I read it.

Can't believe I'm about to say this, but I agree with everything Lnchbox has to say on this, yall can get into the semantics of who is a necessity and who is not but at the end of the day the birth of a child is, at least ideally, the creation of a new family unit, this is a time where that family should come together to share in the amazing thing that is happening. The day of the birth is just as stressful for the dad, especially the first child, trying to marginalize the dads experience just because he isn't the one physically giving birth is total bs. The mother in law had her moment, she's given birth and experienced it before, she is welcome to be there leading up to the birth IMO, but when its go time, she needs to exit and wait.
This statement basically invalidates everything you've been arguing about for 10 pages to me. This is just like people who don't have kids trying to lecture you about parenting. Until you've given birth and know exactly what its like, you really have no business trying to lecture and browbeat someone who has had kids into what is the right way to handle a situation.

Again... Read the op.
I dont think anyone is arguing that it is great for the mom an dad to be there only ones in the room. The thread is that the wife wants her mom in there and the dad doesn't.

Actually.....I have more in common with the viewpoint of a woman that is having her first baby in that....I have no idea what to expect and could easily understand being terrified. That is what is the main reason for a woman to want her mom there. She doesn’t know what having a baby is like and wants someone who does that she is close to...with her.
I’m guessing this is OP’s wife’s first child.

The new dad has the same exact feelings. GTFO.

I’m sorry...as a man you will never understand what it is like to give birth. Biology and all that. Whereas a woman’s mom...she has obviously been there and is able to comfort her scared daughter in a way her husband will never be able to.
Also....a new dad isn’t at risk of dying in childbirth. Granted it doesn’t happen often now...but we just had a thread of a young healthy woman suddenly dying after the baby was born. So no....while you may be terrified for the safety of you wife and baby...your life is never at risk.

I comfort my wife better than my MIL could ever dream of. quote:

Neither is a MIL. What a great point you made.

That's ignorant. I could have a heart attack form the excitement.

Stating a fact that neither of us has birthed a child is too far? I didn't say it as an insult or a knock.

Nvm I jumped the gun, I scrolled up and based on previous posts it's fair.

That's the level of compassion only a woman can provide.

Why is this a big deal
I'm married but no kids yet
I have no mother in law, but if my wife wanted an aunt or a lifelong friend there (she won't) I'm not sure why I should particularly care
