What do you think?

The day before my due date, my mom is going to have surgery. My mom is hoping I have the baby before she goes in. I really want to have my baby soon so mom can be there. I'm due on the 17th. My main problem is that if momma can't make it, I definitely don't want my husband's mother in there either. She's been really overbearing throughout my whole pregnancy, and controlling to. Is that fair? This may seem a little unclear because I haven't been elaborating much on how my mother in law is..but I seriously don't want her in the delivery room if my mom can't be there. What do you think? I don't want to disappoint anyone..

I don't want either of our mother's there. I am only having my partner in the room with me. We made this baby alone. I don't even want them coming to the hospital for atleast a couple of hours after I have my baby girl.
Don't feel guilty if you don't want your MIL there. It's completely about what makes you happy and comfortable. Put it in your birth plan that you don't want her in the room and if she does turn up at the hospital the nurses will make her stay in the waiting room.
I've told my partner he isn't even allowed to tell anyone when I go into Labour because I don't want anybody turning up at the hospital until I say they can. He completely agrees with me.
Talk to your partner, explain how you feel and why. Hopefully he will be supportive and understanding

Well first of all if she is gonna annoy u while your in labor then that is reason enough for her not to be there, secondly its YOUR labor and what you say goes so if it your mom or no mom then she will just have to accept it. Dont worry about disappointing anybody else just make sure no one is gonna be there who will disappoint you.

Your the one that is going to need to feel comfortable, have you let your partner that you don't want his mother in there? Its your choice in the end, don't feel pressured!
