Advice for not dating baby daddy while I’m labour

Baby daddy and I are not together. But we agreed on co parenting best we can. He wants to be present for her birth, which I’m very happy about. But does anyone have any advice for when I’m in labour??

I know I’m not going to have that moment most women share with their husbands, when their husband kisses their wife after the baby is born etc. And it somewhat hurts my heart that that’s not what’s going to happen. I know he’ll more than likely hold my hand through it all, but not having that intimate split second moment most women have right after she’s born, is breaking my heart a little bit.

Has anyone gone through this, and have any advice?
