I am just wondering,what if a woman goes into labour in d midnyt and they couldn't get to the hospital due to distance, can a man take delivery of the baby and how? |
| Re: How Is A Baby Delivered? by Nobody: 7:40am On Aug 02, 2011 |
^^^ Yes, a man can take delivery of a baby, in the absense of midwives, and at home. I would search on Youtube - there are lots of informative video clips on the birth process for non-medical individuals. |

If I was in such a situation, I would called someone experience to help me. Like my mom. But if i was stuck with a pregnant woman, and there was no help, I'd probably die before the baby comes. |

Thanks Sienna, I would like to see the videos or any other information,my place is a bit far away from the hospital she registered for prenatal and I can't b watching her go through pains without knowing what to do |

A man who is not a midwife or a dr can nt deliver a baby, and labour is nt what comes and u deliver immediate. |
| Re: How Is A Baby Delivered? by jossy26: 10:34am On Aug 02, 2011 |
@Ng4am, I need more info pls |
| Re: How Is A Baby Delivered? by ng4am(f): 10:49am On Aug 02, 2011 |
If it her 1st pregnancy it may last 4 up to 6 to 8hrs. There re 3 phases of labour. |
| Re: How Is A Baby Delivered? by ng4am(f): 10:56am On Aug 02, 2011 |
Take her to hospital when her contractions is 10 to 15mins apart, since ur house is far 4rm d hospital. |
| Re: How Is A Baby Delivered? by Nobody: 2:24pm On Aug 02, 2011 |
ng4am: Your analysis is incorrect. It doesn't take only doctors, nurses or midwives to deliver a baby. All it takes is common sense, basic hygiene and a calm disposition. Unless there are complications, a layman can be talked through the birthing process by someone with experience, on the other end of the phone. Babies have been born in taxi cabs, assisted by the cab drivers. Unless you're telling me these taxi drivers are all medical doctors, masquerading as cab drivers? |
| Re: How Is A Baby Delivered? by ng4am(f): 2:36pm On Aug 02, 2011 |
Am saying is nt adviceble 4 a non professional to do that cos u cnt tel when there wil be complications. |
| Re: How Is A Baby Delivered? by jossy26: 2:49pm On Aug 02, 2011 |
Thanks Sienna,so what are d basic things to do to help her just in case, I pray the time will be very comfortable for ♏ε to take her to the hospital immediately buh dnt know what can happen  |

jossy26:Good to be prepared for eventualities but as much as its possible,a professional or an experienced hand especially if its the first time. Birthing and/or labour does not start or end instanta . , Your wife should at least have an EDD(expected date of delivery) to work with,get your wife close to the hospital or bring in an experienced hand. |
| Re: How Is A Baby Delivered? by N101: 5:29pm On Aug 02, 2011 |
jossy26: Yes he can - I have a friend who did before the midwife could get there. |
| Re: How Is A Baby Delivered? by chidyke77(m): 7:06pm On Aug 02, 2011 |
ng4am:yes,bt in a difficult situation u hv to do it bcoz u hv no other alternative and her only lifeline is u. |
| Re: How Is A Baby Delivered? by Nobody: 7:54pm On Aug 02, 2011 |
ng4am: I think you're missing the essence of this thread. No one plans to have a brick layer or black smith deliver their baby. I'm sure Jossy isn't planning on delivering his baby. What he's asking is, in an emergency situation, can he deliver his wife of the baby? He's not asking if it's advisable. |
| Re: How Is A Baby Delivered? by Nobody: 8:01pm On Aug 02, 2011 |
There's a good video clip here showing you what to do, if your baby decides to make an unexpected appearance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pOSNcEOaTI&playnext=1&list=PLA996BF0FFE3B0074 |
| Re: How Is A Baby Delivered? by jossy26: 8:18am On Aug 03, 2011 |
Thanks Sienna, really appreciate,won't mind someone that av done that before to share his experience. Thanks again,I av seen d video |

@ Poster, when your wife puts to bed, please come back and tell us so that we can thank God with you. I think your wife is the NLander Taryour? I wish u both success and God's favour. |
| Re: How Is A Baby Delivered? by ronkebp(f): 6:39pm On Aug 09, 2011 |
the best thing is to make sure she gets to the hospital on time, there are definitely signs that shows that the baby is ready to come out, when you see those signs, start rushing to the hospital, there is no point waiting till the last minute, there are times that the baby might have changed his/her positions, with head up and legs down, or the baby might be in a transverse position, what can a husband do at that time? except he is doctor/nurse/midwife, so it is better to be safe than sorry. |
| Re: How Is A Baby Delivered? by tifan12(f): 11:56pm On Aug 09, 2011 |
you go to Delivery centre. Or you go to friend that did previous the midwife know there. [url]http://myjebin..com/[url] |

@ronkedp, thanx that exactly what am trying to tel him. |
| Re: How Is A Baby Delivered? by fm7070: 8:35am On Aug 25, 2011 |
human being is not a car that you can fiddle with anyhow. Better you get an experienced hand. You don't know how the child is coming, maybe coming with leg or other places. Ofcourse head is the best and easiest. To avoid more complication in a complicated issue, get an expert. Meanwhile, do you live in the wilderness? that you can't think of a nurse in your neighbourhood or church?? |
| Re: How Is A Baby Delivered? by tpia5: 12:53pm On Aug 25, 2011 |
Good question. |
