May 28th-June 1st Delivery Room

Going into class and about half way through I had my mind set that my mom would be in the delivery room when Jared and I had our first child. I have always pictured my mom there by my side and I honestly think it was because everyone else has had their mom there so why not. I thought it was a great idea. Jared and I have talked about the delivery room with our friends and it's funny because the guys say they think they won't be able to handle it and how gross it's going to be. As I sat in class and listened to Brother Williams and his experience and opinion I began to see where he was coming from. Brother Williams said that have husband and wife in the delivery room together and no one else gives it more of a growing opportunity and experience that only comes at that moment. Having a child really only involves the husband and wife. If you think about it parents aren't there when you create the child so having them in the delivery room isn't necessary either. I think it's important to have the support of both parents but when it's just husband and wife then it can be a precious moment as well as sacred. I know my mom wouldn't take away from our special time, but I also know that my mom would want whats best for us. Jared and I need that time to connect with one another and be there when our life is about to change. Thank you Brother Williams for sticking to your opinion and giving me a idea or concept in marriage.
