my husband stand next to me, he didn't want to see so many blood so he just hold my hand and talk to me. It is absolutely a good idea to let your husband stay with you, during that moment if your husband stay with you, you will not be afraid and have more power, also you and your husband can see the baby at the first moment. After i deliver my baby my husband didn't has any bad feeling and he said next time he will bring the video cam too. :lol:
