BE SUPPORTIVE!: Give her love, support and help that she want's, not what you think she should be doing. This is not the time to tell her, "don't worry, it will be over soon!".

YOU should have take: Pre natal classes or if u haven't you should because that is what they teach at the classes, he can be supportive of you, the labor nurses can tell him what to do during your labor.
