Delivering a baby is a dangerous thing, both for the mother and for the baby as well. That's why people go to the hospital or get a midwife to help with the delivery. Your boyfriend is NOT equipped to deal with delivering a baby.

I can understand that going to the hospital can be a scary thing but honey, when you water breaks- that means your baby is ready to come into the world. And I'm sure that you and your BF want a healthy baby and I'm sure he wants a healthy GF- if you don't go to the hospital- you could very likely bleed to death or worse, if there are problems when the baby is delivered- the baby could die. There are so many complications that could occur when you are delivering- you need to have a medical professional there who knows what to do in any circumstance. I'm not trying to make this worse- but I just think you need to realize these things. Now, as far as him helping- have him drive you to the hospital, and when you are in the delivery room- make him rub your back or bring you ice chips- just being there with you at the birth of your child is responsible enough. But for God's sake, please go to the hospital if you water breaks!!!

Unless your boyfriend is a OBGYN, or a certified mid-wife, he can do nothing but take you straight to the hospital. You need to go to the doctor when your water breaks. If a woman's water has been broken for more than 24 hours the baby is at high risk for an infection.

To put? I am really not understanding, why would you not want to go to the hospital, how are you planning no delivering this baby? IF your water breaks, which is a big if, I have only had my water break once out of four times. You have no choice, you could kill the baby if you don't have a professional there with you.

Where have you gone for pre-natal treatment? Why not go to the DR or Hospital. Do your parents not know? Your Boyfriend is not an ObGyn or a mid wife. You must go to the hospital. They will deliver your baby and ask no questions. If you don't want it, they will keep it and begin adoption proceedings, both you and your boyfriend must relinquish custody.If you try to have him deliver and the cord is around the babies neck, what then? You can end up in court.

First of all, I had my son at a hospital but with no pain killers...lemme tell you I hope you know how much pain you are in for, hopefully you can handle it without an epidural.
....The best thing your BF can do is read books about childbirth, Emergency books; look under the section of childbirth and books on midwifery. You both need to do this. If one or both of you do not, go to hospital. If you both read about it and he doesn't want to help, don't try to change his mind or make him do it. Besides that, if you do your research and decide to do it alone, just make sure you call for at least paramedics to come at some point.

If you don't go to the hospital or have a mid-wife or someone there with a MEDICAL degree you are an unfit mother and don't deserve to have that baby. You'll be risking your LIFE your baby's LIFE and if you don't care then I hope all the WORST for you. Your being down right STUPID not going to the hospital or doctors office.

You both obviously know nothing on the subject why would you not want the best start for your child. Be a responsible parent, go to the hospital where trained people will deliver your baby safely.

Why on earth would you not want to go to the hospital? When your water breaks you should call your doctor immediately. They will most definately tell you to go to the hospital because your baby is coming! If you don't you risk your baby's health, they are more susceptible to infections, etc. If you want your bf to do something, have him pack your bag or call the doctor when it happens.

once you've no longer something to do, bypass ahead and bypass to the health center. you could walk in and allow her know you're there and ask her what she needs and wait outdoors if she prefers. in my opinion, i might want to easily call her and ask if she needs you there right now or wait until eventually the newborn is the following. because she stated "are available in case you opt for" which potential she would not "want" you. fairly, you could settle on and if she asks why you probably did not come formerly you could tell her you had to furnish her her area. in case you do bypass there now or early, then tell her you had to be there for her. She's probable properly interested in her difficult artwork and infant on the on the spot and would not fairly options what you do.
