If you stay in the room, you will be advised to look away, but you will make the same mistake that countless other men have made, and sneak a quick glance at it. Like I said walk out of the room, go for a walk and take your time. The kid will be around for years to come, he can wait a few more minutes to see daddy.
I knew not to look but thats after 30 or so deliveries so I have gotten enough of that nastiness on me. karens OB doc was teasing me durring her delivery too asking if I wanted to see the baby being born. I told her I was just fine at the head of the bed
