LABOR ?

[Lataaa]

So my sister asked me if she could be In the room during labor... I said I would have to ask my hubby ... but ill be brutally honest ... I'd like to share that moment with my husband and husband only. So I'm debating on if I should tell her they only let one person in or should I just tell her the truth? Ugh I'm stuck I just don't want her to think I don't care enough to want her in room.... =( What are all of your thoughts on this? How many people are allowed in labor? ..Thank you hope everyone is doing well!

Hahaha you guys crack me up ... Thank you if she doesn't understand well then she'll just have to get over it =x she'll understand when she's pregnant with her first

Lol my mom told me she was going to be in the room and I told her straight up that she is not going to be in there. I could care regardless if she birthed me but I dont need her seeing that. Thats just for me and my boyfriends eyes only.

My sis asked too but i told her heck no, i ju as t wanted my mom and hubby there. Don't feel bad it's ur moment and whom ever ud like to share it with

My mother in law wanted to be in the room since it would be her first grandbaby and i felt the same way, i wanted the moment to be shared between my husband and i alone so i let her be in the room up until i started pushing...
but id be honest with your sister cause it would really suck if she asked a nurse or somehow it came up about how many people are allowed in the room and then she ended up in the room with you guys.
depending on her age she should understand and if she doesnt now, then she will when shes older. Make her feel involved though like say she can be the first to hold the baby once family is welcomed back into the room
or tell her that she can be in the room for the next one, but i think that the first one should be just mom and dad that is a moment for you and your hubby to treasure, another first experience for you guys! this is a bad analogy but itd be like losing your virginty in a three-some! lol

Thank you all ... In my culture were not allowed to have mom's in room but other then that u can do whatever u want but I'd want it to be just hubby and I and I don't want her to think I'm being SElFISH =/ but I'll tell her the truth definitely

[lovetianaaa]

Sometimes i wish id be just my bf and i but idk how id brk that news to my mom being a first time nana.. totally feel where your coming from so hard. So not to make anyone feel bad ive decided to have my bf and both grandmas so no one feels left out.. plus no at the end my mom will have more experience and patience. Were first time parents also. W our second in the future id do us only for delivery. Try telling her if u can find it in you but itd be bad if u tell her they only allow 1 and later she comes to find out it was a lie if she asks at the hospital herself. Gd luck.

I'd tell her the truth cuz if she finds out that u lied she'll be mad and hurt she should understand that its ur time u have a job to do and need no distractions or anything to make u uncomfortable and if she gets mad at that? Then screw it she'll get over it but it's all ur decision who's there for when u have to push a watermelon out

[AshaB25]

I am not sure but it will only be me my mom and be when I deliver. If my mom makes it in time. But I am allowing my mom because my bf doesn't not understand everyone expresses themselves different I will cry during delivery and he might call me a cry baby so while he is there to see baby mom will see after me lol. I say tell your sister you and hubby want that time to yourselves.
