Isn’t it fairly recent that fathers were allowed to go into the delivery room? How would I know because I adopted 3 children but I remember sitting in the waiting room with fathers who weren’t allowed in there.

I'm not sure how recent it was. I know that my father was in the room when my mother gave birth to me - that was 30 years ago.

My father went throught that ordeal -- I was born on our kitched table.

It was a blessing from the Almighty for me.

Arrabgements had been made for my mother to give birth in a women's hospital across the Potomac in Washington, D.C. But, fortuantely for me, a severe snow storm hit, precluding that trip, and I was thus delivered on the kitchen table by my Dad.

Missed being a Damyankee by the width of the Potomac river and a snow storm. Praise Be!!!! An American by birth; a Virginina by the Grace of God.
