Both parents´ retrospective view of a labour in the presence of fathers
 MATYÁŠOVÁ, Monika
Assistance in childbirth differed in various cultural communities and historical periods. However, childbirth was always a family matter in which father participated either directly or indirectly. The last ten years revealed that the role of a man was absolutely irreplaceable in the relationship between mother, a new-born child and father, and that the role reflected itself in the relationship not only with mother {--} the mate but also with the child. The objective of the bachelor thesis was to ascertain to what extent the father's attendance to the childbirth was a spontaneous wish of both the parents, and to what extent it was rather a wish of the woman in childbed. On the basis of my own experience, the following hypothesis was determined: ``Father{\crq}s attendance to the childbirth is predominantly a spontaneous wish of both the parents.{\crqq} In order to verify the hypothesis, I used the form of a quantitative research. The data were collected using the questionnaire containing 16 questions for mothers and 16 questions for fathers. The questions for both the groups of informants were identical. The questionnaire was anonymous. The research group consisted of the mothers giving birth to their child in the hospital in České Budějovice (a joint stock company) and their mates attending to the childbirth. The research group comprised 56 pairs of informants. The results of the thesis reveal that the mate{\crq}s attendance to the childbirth is largely a spontaneous wish of the parents-to-be. It is obvious that as early as during the pregnancy the fathers-to-be search for the information on gravidity and childbirth. They enjoy the pregnancy together with their mates and do not assume an uninterested attitude to the gravidity of their mates. Active preparation of the pairs for the childbirth is also apparent. Assessment of negatives and positives of father{\crq}s attendance to the childbirth is subjective and very individual. If the mate{\crq}s attendance to the childbirth is a common wish of both the parents-to-be, the delivery of their child is an invaluable experience in their life.
