I would save my wife, even if she couldn't have another baby, we could always adopt.
-
Yes. It's deep and difficult. If it were to come down to it I would choose my wife.

I haven't had kids, but I'm pretty certain that I'd choose to save my wife over the baby. I think what it really comes down to is a matter of how much suffering is involved with either option. The total suffering that would result from my wife's death (to her, to me, and to everyone else who knows her) would be far worse than the total suffering that would result from the baby's death. Heck, the baby would be too young to even know what's going on for itself. Hopefully, the baby could be killed without too much suffering to it. The only possible exception I can think of is if my wife was very unlikely to live much longer anyway, and the only thing keeping her happy was the thought of procreating. That doesn't sound like my wife, though.

I know you asked for guys to respond but I BTDT.... Yes this is a hard question and my husband was asked by the hospital staff during my pregnancy. He told them me. When I heard that, I was furious...I told him in not uncertain terms to save our baby. Thankfully it didn't come down to that and we were both fine. I'd say find all the variables and discuss it with your wife and honor her decision.(Like a living Will).

I am not a guy but I have an agreement with my husband that if he must decide then he is to choose the baby's life over mine. I'd want my child to have a chance at life. I don't know if he'd be able to do it but that would be what I would want. If he ended up choosing me then of course I'd forgive him and support his decision.

I have two daughters and this scenario has played out in my mind a thousand times. I would choose my wife. To be honest, and I'm a little embarrassed to say it, but I don't know what kind of a parent I would have made by myself. My wife just knows things that never even occured to me as we raise our kids and I'm learning from her every day.

In this type choice the scales are never balanced. Either the child or the mother would be harmed by the complications. Without knowing who the complications impacted the most seriously, the question is a true, hypothetical toss up. I'd want my wife to survive if the alternative was to let her die, while birthing a physically/mentally challenged child. But, without knowledge of the details of the decision, it is unfair to make a hypothetical call on this one.
-
This one's really hard. Well, all I know is that if I chose to save the baby then I wouldn't be able to live myself without my wife. I know that sounds selfish but life wouldn't be the same anymore and you never know whether the child will be stillborn for one or whether it will have any other problems that could lead to serious issues. So I'd choose my wife.
-
If I get downrated for my honesty , then, so be it. I would choose to save my wife. She is my soulmate. That's just the way I feel. If that makes me a bad person,"The Bad Guy", oh well ...

as a woman i have had this discussion with my other half. and i told him that i have lived my life to the full, i may be young but i have loved, and lived and i would want my baby to live, i would be devasted to the piont of not wanting to live if my life was choosen over my babies as i would feel that i had stolen something from him or her. i also told my husband that if he made the choice to save me then i honestly dont think i would be with him any more cause i would blame him as much as myself for the death and because he would not be the man i thought he was if he went against my last wish
-
wife
-
I'd pick the wife.
-
i think i should say may wife... but on a second thought i think mi wife would like to have the baby saved... i just know she would never stop regreting such a big loss... eventhough she never mentions it, she would feel that way... so if i love my wife enough, i shuld save the baby, well, my baby =)
-
My wife.
-
I think, as a woman, that before having a baby this question should be brought up. Many women might say to pick the baby b/c the know that they could never live knowing that their baby is dead because of them.
-
The wife of course
-
My wife and I had this conversation before she went into labor. She demanded that I save elect to save the baby. I wanted to save her because we could always make another baby, while I could not make another her. If something would have happened, I would have had the docs save the baby since we discussed it.
-
My wife.
