My hubby has gone all squeamish about me giving birth, not sure what his mates have been telling him but he recons it will be some massive disguting poo, wee, vomit and blood filled festival! What is really odd is he's not squeamish about anything normally, a typical ex military, rugby playing type, so duno why he's suddenly being 'funny' about it and just makes vomiting actions whenever I mention giving birth, or mentions the water birth debris net! He's says there's no way he's cutting the cord and will def be staying at my head end (which is a good thing for me!) thought he'd want to cut cord though! He's never even seen a film of a women giving birth but won't when I suggested it, I think he's perhaps a bit old fashioned and would rather just be waiting outside then given the baby once it's all clean!
Just not sure how to tackle all this with him, he's so excited about everything else and we can talk about everything normally but this has kind of got me stumped as I want support from him and worried how he'll be, maybe the jokes will just go once it happens for real and he'll just get on with doing his job!
