It wasn't the delivery room that was the heart of the matter for me, by now fathers get to be present. It was in the room after, where he stayed overnight. It was our first child afterall. That's where the sense of unwelcome came from.

Have you ever seen the show 'Mad Men?' There's a very interesting scene where Betty Draper is essentially shaved and then knocked out to have her baby. I found it really disturbing.
