Oh mother (in law)

[tats_87]

My MIL has made it clear to me that she intends to be in the delivery room with me. Um yeah, no. I don't even want my husband in there, he doesn't have enough of a filter to keep me from killing him while in labor lol. I only want my mom with me, but my in laws are SO overbearing.  Any one else dealing with this dilemma?

Bc my in laws r so twisted and mil is the mist evil iver bearing controlling ive ever met my husband says we rnt calling his family when I go into labor. Theyr stressful ppl and I need to be relaxed when im in labor

My MIL lives clear across the country, and plans on staying for a few weeks as well. Luckily my mom lives out of state and is staying in our extra room, so my mil has to stay with my sil. I like having the doc/nurse tell them to leave, last thing I want is people getting butthurt and thinking selfishly while I'm trying to push a baby out lol.

It will be just me and my cousin. No one else will respect my rules that me my Dr and my cousin have set forth. I want the room super dim and do not want to be spoken to. I want the room silent. Lol pregnant women are freaks

My husband's family live 8 hours from us and I love that. Whenever we are around them there is tension between my husband and them. My MIL can be a bit .... special. I'm just having my mom and husband in the delivery room.

If you don't want your mother-in-law in the delivery room just tell the nurses or your doctor. They will ask them to leave and wait in the delivery room. They don't need to know that it was you who didn't want them in there. They will think it's hospital policy.

My bf and I are having our first child who happens to be the first grandchild in the family. Both our siblings have a 99% chance of not being able to have kids so, I feel your pain! Everyone wants to be a part of everything. My mom flat out told me she was going to be in the delivery room and stay with us for a few weeks after. His mom wants to be in the delivery room and quit her job so she can be our full time baby sitter. Everyone has their opinions and wants to do what they want to do. Well, this is our first child and no matter how much they may want to be a part of it I'm only allowing so much. (everyone will be at our next ultrasound when we find out out the sex) it's a beautiful time for you and your partner, don't let anyone step on your toes! The Dr's and nurses have already told me that the only people allowed in with us are people I say is ok so don't feel trapped, use your Dr's and nurses!

Mine has cracked a tantrum when we said we don't want any visitors the day bub is delivered!! Not being selfish it's just that we want that time as just the three of us to bond and just enjoy! I'm also needing a csection so will have a catheda in, and will be trying to learn how to breastfeed!! My parents understand but she is just cracked a tantrum. It's not nice, but hold your ground. It's your baby your family and she has no right! If it gets bad tell the hospital she is not to be let in under any circumstances!!!

I went through this with my first son. And at the time we were living with them. So guess what.... she was in the with mine and I almost killed mine. Cause she just had to be there....

I'm struggling with this also. My husband of course will be with me, and part of me wants my mom there with me, but I'm afraid of hurting my MIL feelings. We are very close , closer than my mom and I actually due to my mom bring 3 hrs away. But bottom line, its our births, its an intimate thing, and you should do whatever makes you comfortable.

as long as u made it clear who u want in the room dont even stress it.make sure u tell ur doctor and nurse who is allowed in and they will follow ur instruction

[Mama6hijos]

Nope!! I feel you though!! It's a private thing right!! Lol!! My husband is the only one allowed to be with me. It's our 7th child and will be are 7th cesarean delivery. I am happy that way, I don't like his family or mine!! Lol
