Many fathers wish to be present at the birth of their child, but they often cannot imagine what their role in the labor room would be. The purpose of the study was to look into the experiences of fathers who were present at childbirth. Methods: The study is based on qualitative methodology. The sample consisted of five fathers, aged between 25 to 35 years, who participated at two childbirths at least. The data were obtained by partially structured interviews and analyzed with the content analysis method. Results: Fathers reported that their presence at the childbirth of their child was one of the most beautiful experiences of their lives. However, the experience was described as stressful, but at the same time positive and full of intense emotions. They reported on experiencing feelings such as excitement, anticipation, fear, anxiety, happiness, joy, relief and pride. Some fathers were more actively involved in the childbirth process than others by the midwives and other health professionals. Discussion and conclusion: Fathers wish to be treated respectfully and as equals in the couple who are giving childbirth by midwives and other health professionals. Opportunities for further research could be reflected in the connection of fathers' attendance at childbirth with family and partner dynamics as such. It would be also interesting to obtain the experiences of midwives at childbirth where fathers were presentUvod: Očetje se pogosto vključujejo v porodni proces v vlogi spremljevalcev svojih partnerk ob porodu. Veliko očetov si želi biti prisotnih pri porodu svojega otroka, vendar si pogosto ne predstavljajo svoje vloge v porodni sobi. Namen raziskave je bil raziskati izkušnje partnerjev s prisotnostjo pri porodu. Metode: Raziskava temelji na kvalitativni metodologiji. Vzorec zajema pet očetov, starih med 25 in 35 let, ki so imeli za seboj vsaj dve porodni izkušnji. Podatki so bili pridobljeni s pomočjo delno strukturiranih intervjujev in analizirani s pomočjo metode analize vsebine. Rezultati: Za očete je bila prisotnost pri rojstvu njihovega otroka ena izmed najlepših izkušenj v njihovem življenju. Kljub temu da so jo opredelili kot stresno, je bila hkrati zanje pozitivna in polna intenzivnih občutij. Občutili so vznemirjenje, pričakovanje, strah, zaskrbljenost, srečo, veselje, olajšanje ter ponos. Nekateri očetje so bili s strani babice in ostalega zdravstvenega osebja v porodno dogajanje vključeni bolj aktivno, drugi manj. Diskusija in zaključek: Očetje si želijo biti s strani babice in ostalega zdravstvenega osebja obravnavani spoštljivo in kot enakovreden del para, ki se mu rojeva otrok. Priložnosti nadaljnjega raziskovanja se kažejo v proučevanju povezave med prisotnostjo pri porodu ter družinsko in partnersko dinamiko, pa tudi v izkušnjah babic s prisotnostjo očetov v porodnih sobahTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaZbornica zdravstvene in babiške nege Slovenije - Zveza strokovnih društev medicinskih sester, babic in zdravstvenih tehnikov Slovenije
