description Objective: to reveal the experience of the woman and her companion whose right to share the birth of their child was violated. Method: qualitative, exploratory-descriptive research. Interviews were held with 13 puerperal women and their companions, between January and July 2016, in a public maternity hospital located in the tablelands of Santa Catarina. Analysis took place through content analysis using the Atlas.ti 7.0 software. Results: these are presented in three categories: The woman’s experience in not having her companion in the operating room; The companion’s experience in waiting for the birth alone; and The power of the health professionals over the birth scenario. Conclusion:the study evidenced the negative feelings regarding the experience; the woman felt unsupported due to the absence of her companion, and the companion felt disappointed because of not experiencing the birth of their child. The main factor behind this separation was the attitude of the health professionals, who continue to impede the companion’s presence in the operating room.
