I'm 37 weeks pregnant I'm not sure if my husband will be able to be there for the birth of our son he is currently incarcerated but if he isn't there who should I have in the delivery room? what would you do? Who would you choose to be with you?

Answer ✓
I would choose the person who I thought would offer me the best support during labour. It could be a mother, aunt, friend, cousin, sister.
If you don't think you have anyone in your life who would be the right kind of support while in labour then you could look into hiring a doula.
Or you could just go with midwife/OB medical staff.
