Re: Whose DH cut the cord?
Yup, DH did. I was surprised at how skinny the cord was! I always pictured it being like a garden hose.

Re: Whose DH cut the cord?
No, DH wanted to and we planned on it, but I had a c-section and there was trouble at the end when he would have done it. They couldn't stop my bleeding and he didn't want to leave my side. We both were freaked out.

Re: Whose DH cut the cord?
No because I had a c/s, but I don't think he wanted to do it anyway.

Re: Whose DH cut the cord?
Yep, he cut it. He was actually going to catch the baby, but Asher had his cord around the neck so the midwife had to deliver him.

They didn't even give JT the option. They cut it for him and never asked him if he wanted to
same here.

Same here. They never asked and I was so out of it I didn't even notice that til after. I think he probably would've wanted to.

Re: Whose DH cut the cord?
My DH cut both my children's cords. But my first had the cord wrapped around his neck so the doctor cut it then they took him to the warmer and they let DH cut it shorter, lol.

Re: Whose DH cut the cord?
I didn't give mine the option...
When the doc asked if he wanted to cut it I shouted "YES!" and that was that

Same here. That was my only negative in St Catherines.
Really??? I had Dr. Murphy and my husband cut the cord. Maybe it depended on the doctor who performed the birth?

Re: Whose DH cut the cord?
I know this will probably get lost in this thread, but I was reading through the responses and was curious???
If you had a c/s, were you not given the option to have DH cut the cord? I had Andrew via c/s and my doc let him cut the cord. Of course I couldn't see anything over the sheet, but I know he did... I remember him telling me he saw a little too much that day.

Yes...DH did both times. I was surprised since he passes out when he sees a paper cut!

Same here, but it was also an unexpected c-section, not necessarily emergency, but an unexpected one.

My DH was  at the idea of cutting it. He said "Isn't that why we're paying the doctor?"
So he didn't.
Just curious how many DHs did do it.
DH said the same thing.

I had a c and in my drunken state asked if DH was going to cut the cord and the whole room laughed at me and the dr. said with cs they dont let husbands do it.

Re: Whose DH cut the cord?
Yup my very squeamish DH cut the cord.. he was sooo into the experience once I went into labor. And yes, I was totally shocked and amazed at how awesome he was during my labor.. since up until that moment he couldn't even look at a birth or lamaze video without nearly  and passing out
