He should definitely not have kicked off like that, can't imagine what sort of father he would be! I do, however, feel a bit sorry for him as I don't think any dad should have to miss the birth of their child. I get that she wanted her mum, but the baby is both of theirs and I don't think she thought about how he would feel to have to miss it. I'm having my mum and husband in the delivery room but if I have to go to theatre I will choose my husband, I want to share that experience with him and he wouldn't miss it for the world x x
