I just had my Fiance in the room with my first and labor was super long so he slept a lot but this time I would love to have my Mom in there but my Fiance just wants the two of us in there...

I just had my husband, we felt it was a special thing between us and I didn't want anyone else. Same this time round.

My mother in law so wants to be there this time but I have told her no not a chance she need to have my son who is 3 as my mum and dad will be away as I'm been induced on 5th they go on 2nd early hours of the morning unless I go into Labour today or tomorrow ( tomorrow been my dad's birthday ) so just me and hubby in my delivery room and told everyone there jot coming to the hospital either as his mum came into delivery room about half hour after I'd had my son and I wasn't happy as I wasn't fully clean or dressed not even had my shower but I want my son to come visit to meet his sister which means she will have to come not so sure on her coming tbh but she will have to and I will tell her to leave if she starts getting giddy as I can't stand it her voice when she is giddy gose though me

But I'd say he will be fine if you both just keep talking and he will be ok once baby is here

@Victoreious I dont want her in there because I know how i am and I dont like someone on my neck about stuff I shouldn't worry about in such a delicate moment.

Wow It seems like its alot of us who will only have the bfs in the room.

I'm just having my partner there with me. I feel it is an intimate moment where you are becoming a family, and I don't want other people there causing a distraction or being more hindrance than a help. My mother has offered to be there, but I know she would not be supportive of what I want. In the end it is upto you. But just tell the nurses if there is anyone you don't want allowed in, or if you want someone removed and.they will do that for you

It was only me and my husband in the room my first and second child, and I'm pretty sure it will be just him this time. I'm just more comfortable when it's just us, although I may possibly allow a second person this time. The decision is up to you though and what you feel comfortable with.

I'm about to have my second baby, the only ppl I'm allowing in the room is my bf and my older sister. I had 4 family members in the room with me when I had my first (not by choice) some ppl just don't know what leave me alone means lol. Its really up to u, but in my experience the less ppl the better. Ur having a baby, not putting on a show lol.
