My mother insists she is going to be in the delivery room because she was for her other two grandchildren and she is going to be for this one. I have been telling her for a long time that it was just me and DH. She blows me off and says whatever. She does not believe me. I invited her for my next sonogram because we find out the sex of the baby. My DH has 16 year old daughter so she is going to. I told her I would compromise and she could go to the sonogram since she would not be in he delivery room. She blew me off again and still I don't think it has sunk in that I don't want anyone else in the room. I even told her I would not call when I went into labor if she was going to continue that way and no respect what I wanted. That did not go over real well. Anyway, just wondering who is going to be in the delivery room or who was with you? Do you think I am wrong just wanting DH and I? Do you think when the time comes that I will want her in there? My sisters think I am making a big deal out of it because they did not care who was there or not. |
It was just DH and me in there the three times. I wouldn't have minded my mom and MIL in there with me or maybe my sisters.
I would tell him to maybe speak to her. I can understand her wanting to be there but I can also see your wanting it to be just you and hubby. It's a very private thing being in the delivery room and being exposed. If your not that comfortable with her being in there then that is your right.
Try to get your point made without aggravating yourself too much. Sounds to me like your mil will be a bit over bearing as well when you have the baby.
