Honestly I think it's weird that culturally we've leaned into making birth a weird medical horror date night. Isn't it better to just not be in the doctors' way?
id like my bf to be there for any major surgeries, im definitely ok with him being on the phone in the moments where im not having a hard time tho. tbh would prefer if he put something on for us to both focus on

Honestly, you kind of have to be there to make sure your partner is getting the appropriate care, along with providing emotional support for a long, exhausting and painful process.

Valid point, especially in cases like these where a misogynistic doctor might tune out a woman until her partner also goes squeaky-wheel.
Add in and it's even worse. Rough time!
