So you've probably read every book on the subject and been posting on Mumsnet since you were TTC. The baby is coming and you're as ready as you'll ever be.
But what about your OH? If you feel your DP or DH isn't quite as prepared as you are what do you think they need to know about labour, birth and beyond? Or, if you've been through it all before, what advice do you wish had been shared with your partner at the time - or what wisdom might they give with the value of hindsight?
We're looking for your tips on how they can help you prepare for the big arrival, and what they'll need to know when you go into labour; how they can be helpful in the delivery room and what you'll want them to do once the baby is finally here.
Everyone who posts comment on this thread will be entered into a prize draw where one Mumsnetter will win a ticket to Babyfest 2016.
What is Babyfest?
If you're a new parent (or soon will be), then you need Babyfest! Mumsnet's one-day boutique baby event has everything you need for birth and beyond.
Unsure what to pack in your hospital bag? A bit worried about breastfeeding? Or simply in need of a good old pampering session? When it comes to babies, we’ve got every angle covered.
A ticket to Babyfest gives you access to a full day of expert talks on breastfeeding, weaning, sleep and more. Drop in to practical classes - covering everything from first aid to baby bathing - and get hands-on with product demos, as well as enjoying free pampering sessions and a glorious goody bag full of essentials (and treats) for you and your newborn.
