I was a bit surprised at how passionate some people are about this.
I don't care what your partners do. I mildly care about what mine does with #2 but I"ll admit, with #1, I wanted him there. I was afraid something was going to go wrong up and until that baby got his APGAR score of 9.
I think people get passionate when a total stranger on the internet insinuates that their husband is not going to be a good father, or is less involved or less caring, because he only comes to OB appointments once in a while instead of to every single one.

It's just not a place we feel comfortable going. Indeed, up until this point in life, we've essentially pretended those places don't exist. I will never forget when the early 20s-year-old tech took us in the back room and gave us a spiel on where my DW was in process, starting with a refresher on the birds and the bees. I also remember sitting in the waiting room with all the pamphlets about feminin whatnots. Awkward.
So my advice is to drag his a$$ in there for the first one so he can get the hell over it.

Check the meaning of "To be fair." Also, I don't think anyone has suggested husbands need to go sit in a room while their wives pee in cups. So that's really a red herring.
