Labor Room

Re: Labor Room

^ :cb: you have no idea what goes on in the labor room … it’s not anything like you think that mom would be on the head side - YO - your mom’s gonna hafta look at your helpless face and believe me - I say keep mum outta the room! for real!!! :cb:

Alhamdulliah - May your closeness with your mum stay the same always :slight_smile:

I wanna know who in this world had their mum on their side when giving birth? I am not talking about “emergency” circumstance… just normal…

Re: Labor Room

I have 2 kids.

I wasnt present for either birth.

Its simply not for me. Also my wife has old fashion views on this and wouldnt want me anywhere near at the time.

I dont feel as though I missed out on anything - have zero regrets. Had my wife had any regrets, it might get me wondering.

But there is NO WAY she would want her mother or MIL present! Absolutely no way.

Re: Labor Room

So...
if u the hubby wasnt there, and nor was her mother OR mother in law, who was with her????? dont tell me she went it alone???!!! i could never do that !!!

Re: Labor Room

I would want mum there

LOL wondering the same thing

Her mum was in Pak - she didnt want MIL with her - it was her & the hospital staff.

Re: Labor Room

My husband should be there. He put me in that state (of pregnancy) so he should help me get out of it.

Re: Labor Room

NJMasti - I have to agree with all of your posts! lol

My soon to be fiance and I have actually already discussed this matter ( i know ... koi haal naheen ) and we are both on the same page: he has to be present in the delivery room.... and no one else (other than medical staff)! Afterall, by this point in your life - who else knows you as well as your hubby does?!?!

It is also amazing to find out how comforting your guy can be as well. You may never find this out unless you are in this situation and you let him comfort you.

I obviously am not even married yet. But have already discovered how compassionate and caring my fiance to be is. A little while ago he had to rush me to the hospital because I got really sick (Swine flu.... its just as bad as you hear. Allah ka shuker hai that I am alright now). I live alone in another state from my parents as I have just finished my education and am now looking for a job. When I got too ill, i called him and told him and he came over right away and rushed me to ER. There he spent the whole time asking doctors questions, holding my hand, bringing me water, calming me down, etc. It was mA SUCH a comfort to have him there! And because I was so ill, I did not even care about how I looked (no makeup, pajamas on, hair in ponytail) and neither did he. He simply said he hated to see me in this condition but that he would have hated it more if he was not there to take care of me and give me comfort. :)

This experience shed some light onto what it might be like in the future. I can't even imagine not having him with me during that time iA! He is my biggest source of comfort, strength!! And also my best friend.

Re: Labor Room

My baby is due next week and my husband will inshallah be with me but i would also be more than happy to have my mum with me but i didn't ask both because i don't think 2 people are really needed. But mums are definitely great at these kinda things!

Re: Labor Room

^ Best wishes and duas for an easy delivery and healthy you and baby!

World of difference between the flu & Labour room!!!

Ive caught my childs sick in my hands; tended to my wifes stiches when her wounds were infected after surgery; stayed up all night with kids when they had fever etc etc

But you wont find me in the Labour room in any circumstances...

Re: Labor Room

^kyu paijee? :naraz:

Care to say why?? I know its your choice but I was just wondering Why you feel such strongly about this?

^ well at least he took care of her and the baby afterwards... some men are so insensitive in that regard

Re: Labor Room

My husband said he will never be in the room when its time. Who knows what will happen when th etime comes, but i'd probably prefer my mom there. she's just more of a caretaker than my husband is.

or maybe ill have him there so he can see and understand what i went through to have his spawn.

That's okay as long as your wife is okay with you not being with her during the birth.

:hayaa:

has she seen you down there - since after your diaper days - ever? :smilestar:

:hayaa: :hayaa: mum’s care-taking is not the same as having warm soup in cold days - when you are in labor !

I have not yet experience this but can't imagine anyone other than my husband to be there, ofcourse except hospital staff.
Not due to shame or anything but I feel connected to my husband much more than anyone else.

ummmmm..
ummmm..

i know she will take care of me afterwards. :hehe:
i cannot expect the same from my husband.

i dunno, buss moQa hi mil jaye kaafi hai. :bummer:
