Theres not many posts on here is there? Anyway, i have just been thinking about when i gave birth and i wanted to give a tip to all the dads-to-be. When your partner is in labour, no matter what is happening remember to tell her that she is DOING REALLY WELL and you are VERY PROUD of her. It doesnt sound like much but God its good to hear it and it really spurs you on.

Yes and do whatever she requests without quibble (eg: pass her some water, rub her back)

oh and be prepare for some verbal abuse, but remember she really doesn't mean it lol!!
