Never leave your wife's side. Check anaesthetiscs are working before painful procedures, but generally avoid interventions as they are generally bad unless they are necessary then they are life saving but they will always claim they are necessary so you need to know what is needed and when. Use [BRAIN](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/f7/66/eb/f766ebafe257491cd2524eb56a96d4fb.jpg) .

Watch Rikki Lake's The Business of Being Born documentary movie and it's sequel (More Business of Being Born).

Milk the cord toward baby before cutting if necessary.

Unless emergency (again you need to learn a real one looks like because they will say it is necessary every time) dont do the fake oxytocin shot or pulling on the cord to accelerate the placenta being birthed. Birth doesn't count as over until it's out so they want it out asap but unless youre wife is bleeding to death or it has been hours it is more risk to try and accelerate it then to just wait.

Don't vaccinate. No vitamin K shot, if you're worried about brain bleeding load your wife up with foods high in VitK for weeks prior.

Don't genitally mutilate your baby.

Weighing and measuring can wait, do the Golden Hour, baby skin to skin on mum for an hour after birth preferably dim lights and create calm atmosphere.

Unless meconium (poo) is on your baby, dont wash them for at least 1 day or until they are actually dirty. The cheese varnish they are born with is very beneficial to their skin, if it's visible you can rub it in but don't rub it off.

I don't. But if it's a boy, they'll try to cut the tip of his dick off. Don't let them.

They'll try to take cord-blood. Don't let them.

They will try to give them vaccinations as soon as the baby is out of the womb. Don't let them.

Is your wife expecting a little one? I hope so and God bless you and your family! The advice here is wonderful. In addition to the hospital stay, I would try to prepare a bunch of freezer meals before birth to make everyone's life a little easier, especially if you have other children at home. Bone broth is easy to make and full of collagen to help with healing.

Your wife obviously has a very important role, but this is where you as a husband and new father are going to shine. Stay close to your wife and especially your baby, drawing from your God-given role as protector and making sure that they are tended to. I don't think that you need to be fearful about this, but just be very diligent. Hospitals certainly serve a purpose but they are a business first and foremost.
