The event of his child being born must have meant a great deal to him. She had to have known that. She said no, he got pissed, filed a suit, was denied.
Who's to say some women don't do that? :lol: There are ALL kinds out there. Some weirdos are even into "body condoms," so I'm sure those women exist. Personally, I like to have some pleasure out of my sex life too. WTH?! I think your perfect match would be a blow-up doll, seriously. :2razz:
I'm saying there could be a paternity suit to follow.
Maybe, but from all we have to go on, there is nothing to suggest that. The only thing the man seems interested in is the child.
LOL. No, none of those indicate that. You don't take money out of your own child's mouth if you care. PERIOD. You also don't complain about contributing to your child's upbringing in any way possible if you care about that child.
Not to mention that a bystander in the room isn't going to help the medical professionals. And may even become another patient. (passes out, gets his knuckle broken, etc... etc.)And because it's a good idea to be safe rather than sorry. A lot of complications can occur within the first couple of days after a delivery. For example, after I delivered my son, I was internally bleeding and nobody knew until I started to display symptoms. If I had been at home by myself, I could have bled to death and died.
Good morning, Vesper. :2wave:
:agree: I don't understand why he wants to be in the delivery room if she doesn't want him there. She obviously has bitter feelings about him, which is going to stress her when she needs to be as relaxed as possible. The doctors aren't going to switch babies or anything. Another thing I wanted to mention is that without blood work that proves he really is the father, since they aren't married - hey, it happens - what good will it do him to see the baby? It does sound like he cares about the baby, but those feelings apparently don't include the mother. The last thing anyone needs is a confrontation in the delivery room! Maybe I'm off base here, but this time I'm on the side of the woman who doesn't want her ex-boyfriend in the delivery room.
How in the heck did he take money out of his child's mouth? And how do you conclude that he will complain about contributing to his child's upbringing when all things show he has made claim to this child?

Good points Polgara, however, the child they created together is here now. Even though they are Ex they have something that will always connect them. She can no longer use the delivery room as an excuse to avoid reality. Let the lawsuits begin!

Really? Did he suffer morning sickness? Miss his college classes due to sickness? Miss out on a promotion at work because of sickness or exhaustion? Did he get gestational diabetes? Hemmeroids the size of grapes? High blood pressure? Did he pay ANY of her medical bills?
But do you believe that a man is legally required to pay for any of the pregnancy related expenses?
bingo!none of these things you guys are saying makes any difference in this woman's right to privacy during the delivery of the child.

All I can say at this point is that I am very happy that my husband opted out of being in the delivery room! :mrgreen: The nurses suggested that he go get breakfast somewhere, which he did, and by the time he gobbled down some eggs and toast and returned, my son was delivered, which made all of us happy...me especially, since I'm not fond of pain! :lamo: Oddly, women apparently forget the pain, since I had other children after that!
Greetings, Mohammed. :2wave:
I witnessed the birth of my son and, personally, I wish this ban on men in the birthing room was universally applied, regardless of the mother's wishes to include her husband. What has been seen cannot be unseen.
Define the man.
But do you believe that a man is legally required to pay for any of the pregnancy related expenses?
Except for the fact that he was willing to add more stress to the birthing process. Who would want to do that????
He may be genuinely interested in his child, but his actions are showing that he does not care for the welfare of the mother who is carrying the child.
Even though the tide is slowing turning, men have gotten a raw deal where child support/custody issues are concerned. Gradually things are changing. But as far as childbirth is concerned....this is not a raw deal...it just is what it is. His actions hopefully are not a foreshadowing on their future.
Nope. Her body, her bills.
Would he be liable for any of the hospital bills in this case?
They're not married, after all.
