In the delivery room, Are you naked in front of everyone?

[Anonymous]

I'd feel comfortable with my husband being there ofc, but if any of my siblings wanted to be there I'd feel so uncomfortable and I would already be stressed enough with the pain. Even my parents being there, my mom, my dad... Unless it's my husband, I don't think I want anyone of the opposite gender to be there while giving birth. But then I'd feel bad if I didn't let my brothers or my dad be there :/

Maybe I'd be fine if my mom, dad,(maybe sister), and husband were there but that's it

I completely understand you. I wouldn't want anyone but my future husband to be in that room with me andna female nurse. Your family can wait outside and come in when the baby has come.

I wore a robe, bra and socks during all my births. I've heard a few hospitals force the woman to wear a gown but at most you can dress how you want

It is your decision who is in there. It’s a very private, intimate moment, so do not feel pressured or forced to have anyone in there if you don’t want them there. When my sister had her kids, she did water births, and she only wore a bra. Obviously you can’t have anything on your lower half since you’re pushing a baby out. You can cover your top half, whatever makes you more comfortable.

of course not lmao not completely naked. obviously something has to be visible for the doctor/nurses tho. like at the gyno, they cover you or you have a gown on...

Are you gonna deliver your baby with your pants still on? Overly you're just naked in front of some nurses, midwife and doctor. Not for everyone to gawk at you.

[genericname85]

Nobody from your family will see you naked if you don't want that.

Alas society is not yet fully egalitarian and a naked man in a delivery room is instantly branded as a pervert.

Unless if he identifies as a woman.

Naked from the waist down, anyway.
