Hi everyone, very recently got BFP, 1st time so all new and exciting, my DP has already decided that although pleased and happy to be involved in everything before and after he doesn't want to be at the actual birth. I know he's rubbish at medical stuff, really weak stomach, not great with blood etc etc so I'm honestly not too bothered and have sisters and friends I can drag in with me! But does anyone think this is really weird? Anyone else's DP/DH felt the same then changed their minds later on?
Thank you!

My hubby is pretty squemish, I had a c section last time and it was a tad disaterious, the screens came down halfway through so my hubby saw everything thankfully I didn't they didn't realise for a few mins but hubby said the more he told himself not to look he found it harder not to he felt awful and v sick iif it was natural his statement was id be there if I can stay at the head end, but I was very much in the mind I wanted him to see his dc come into the world. He's the roughest toughest person I know but to see him go v pale and v quiet was shocking
