You probably
dont want to know this, (and you should stop reading if you dont want to know the reality) but you wont give a flying fuck about music by the time anything happens. Everything you've thought about doing? That "birth plan" you may have written? Dont even bring it with you.

Its not terrible, but in the list of people that have input into what happens, youre third from bottom, slightly above your partner and the cleaner.

oh I'm well aware of that
the birth plan seems like a load of shite to me, and the music likewise - but have been told that a birth plan saying 'I want to get this baby out of me as painlessly as possible. the end' is not really acceptable (so I've waffled on a bit about other things I want to happen. all shite).

I think it's just something to keep me occupied whilst I grow ever more spherical. between trips to the loo, of course.

Repeat after me
ready? "Give me a fucking epidural now". Start this about 5 minutes in and dont stop until they do.

Haha
I found the cleaner to be above both me and my wife.
After my son was whisked away, she was the one that got me access to see him.

I'd recommend bottled water, snacks and short nails. My wife nearly took my nipple off during the final stages.
