A Man’s Place:

  •  “Your Role In The Delivery Room is to get ice chips and rub her back (at least, until the epidural is in.) And whatever you do, please don’t take anything said by the mother-to-be during labor personally.” --Keith Regan Grafton, Massachusetts

  • “Direct All Your Attention To Your Wife in the delivery room. Breathe deep and look at her reassuringly in the eyes—no matter how much you want to pass out at the sight of all that blood.” --Russ Cox Portland, Maine
