I was just about to say the same - in fact, both dads-to- be that I have seen, seem absolutely useless. They are no support whatsoever. I havent watched from the beginning, but I assume both I have seen are the dads. Why is the son in the room?? That seems a bit weird.
I honestly can't agree more - I was amazed and disgusted!! What on earth would a woman want an 18 year old son in the room for? AND the dad was trying to lock her in the toilet!!!!! I think I've seen it all now, poor baby.
What I couldn't understand is why Tracy would want to have another child by that idiot especially seeing how the oldest son behaved. It was just one big joke to them both. It was hard to believe that the husband, Steve, was a policeman -imagine him coming round to break bad news to you.
He was laughing AT her. How was he supposed to be? Well a bit of sympathy for what she was going through wouldn't have gone amiss. Some encouragement to get her through each contraction: maybe rubbing her back during the contractions if that would have helped her. But no he sat back as if it was nothing to do with him and the only proactive thing he did was to try and lock her in the bathroom. The moron. At least the son, at one point asked if she wanted to squeeze his hand.
Just watched it on sky+ and thought the same about that husband! And I can't believe that I went through two c-sections.. it looks barbaric from the 'business' end!!!
