Fwiw I was allowed to put on scrubs and be right next to my wife when our youngest was born via c-section. She had been in labor all day and wasn’t progressing, once they made the decision to C-section a dozen people came out of the woodwork to prep, including one that got me into scrubs and brought me into the OR. They did advise I stay “north of the curtain” , which I did.
