family issues

I am in total dilemma, need your advice /suggestions please. So m both of my husband's family and mine live in another country. We literally have no one close to where we live. As we just moved to a completely new place. We don't even have our friends close by. The main problem is, my parents still aren't happy with my wedding. They don't respect my husband. My dad doesn't talk to me or my husband. Somewhere in my heart I want my mother to come during my delivery,  no matter how hurtful she is. I still think she is a mother. But she says one thing now and later she changes it. I can't completely trust her if she'll be coming here or not. I have asked her so many times in the past if she could come over, but she changes the topic. And I stopped asking her. But with my sisters, she says she wants to come. I really don't understand my own mother. Should I call her or not? Also she prefers things to be done her way. I can't decide whether to ask for help or no....

Yes, thank you for comment, I only want happiness around us too when our little bundle of joy will arrive. I don't want any negativity around me neither now or in the future. I will try to talk to my mom and explain her everything and see how it goes. I think the best option would be talking. Hope it goes well

My opinion; when my little sweetie  is born I only want those who will surround my little family with love and happiness.  If there was a chance any of my family would bring negativity to the birth of my child I wouldn't want them to be apart of our special day. If you really want your mother to be there and a part of your delivery I would write her a letter. Explain to her how much it means to you to have her be there a part of your special day. Hope that helps ya :)
