Abstract
World Health Organisation (WHO, 2017) recommended the importance of support during labour and childbirth to the women. However, in Indonesia, having husband’s support during labour and childbirth was still uncommon. This study offered the women to have husband’s support during labour and childbirth in order to understand the husband’s perspective supporting the women during labour and childbirth. This study used qualitative method, which was very rare, particularly in Indonesia, to investigate the husband’s perception of their support during labour and childbirth. This study interviewed 18 husbands at three different times: before, during, and after childbirth. This study found three themes before childbirth, three themes during childbirth, and one theme after childbirth. Three themes before childbirth were: I have no idea, (I plan to) fully support (her), and I “tidak tega”; don’t want to see her in pain; I don’t want to see her suffer. Three themes during childbirth were: I have a new appreciation for what it takes to give birth, I gave my full support, and I took action to try and end her pain and suffering. One theme after childbirth was Fully support. This study contributed a new perspective of husbands’ support during labour and childbirth. Based on this finding, this study recommended the maternity centre to provide training classes and materials to the husband to provide support, information, and guidance on how the husbands can best support women during labour and childbirth.
