In the United States, or elsewhere? Genuinely curious.

We had first two kids in hospital setting, both, ESPECIALLY the last one sucked what regards to interaction with staff.

Everyone since we did with private midwifes. Such a better experience.

Not sure about the US. I live in India and I was commenting about the situation here.

In NZ and Australia you can have a support person with you during a c-section. They are scrubbed in and stand next to the mothers head and can keep her company during. They can even cut the umbilical cord still. I don't think there are any hospitals that don't allow it in NZ and Aus, I think it would be really unusual for them not to allow it!

I was with my wife when she had her c-section during Covid, UK. I just had to wear scrubs, a cap and a mask to remain sanitary.
