I've been thinking a lot about after L&D and my SO comes from a big family. He's such a family man which is nice but I already know he's going to go overboard and literally invite all his family members to the hospital to see the baby. I can handle immediate family but I'm not about to entertain 30+ people coming in n out. I'm going to be wayyy too tired. 🙇 thinking about this kinda has me stressing cause I feel he won't understand.

Hey the way I see it is that after I had my baby I had been in labor for 2 weeks finally had her after a long stressful day and I hadn't eaten food at that point for 5 days not even joking. So you know they wanna see the baby cool but there are some things that both mom and dad need to do before visitors flood them. Don't be afraid to kick everyone out and tell them to come back later. It's your birth your baby and your feelings don't get trampled on! @xolovingisaiah

@tater4414 yessss that's also what I've thought about, like I don't wanna end up snapping at people but if they arent being considerate of how I'm feeling then Oh well, right? 💁 lol

Sorry to say but oh well if they're butt hurt. This is your baby, do what's best for you. You only get to do this once with your baby, make it count.... The way YOU want. Yours and his family have a lifetime to bond with the baby once he or she is here. :)

@babyn2015 yess that's exactly what I want. Ill have to think of an excuse though if he magically agrees since his family will be so but there

I felt the same way. He's family wanted to be involved in everything. This is my first baby and wanted to savor every moment. I wanted it to just be me and him at the birth of our baby. I talked to him and fortunately he understood how I felt and wanted me to be as comfortable as possible. So we didn't tell anybody about my induction date, we went in and delivered her just before midnight. We didn't announce her arrival until about noon the next day and I don't regret it. We got to spend her first moments alone with her. By the way, we just told everybody it was an emergency c section and there was no time to make phone calls lol

When I was in labor with my first it was a damn party. My parents, grandma, 3 sisters, my niece. My husbands parents, his grandparents, his sister and her husband and their kids oh god it was hell lol but they all left before it was pushing (well csection for me) time. This time it's me hubby and his mom (maybe my toddler for awhile) until I say so

That way you don't feel too bad because nobody will know except you and the nurses

Maybe you can come up with a code word with your nurses and they can clear whoever is in there out of the room if you get overwhelmed or you don't want a certain person in the room.

@mamalamadingdong that's nice to know. I think I'll tell them as soon as I get too overwhelmed. I don't handle socializing for long periods of time well

@braylinsmommy ehh Idk they're all chatty and probably will wanna know everything. My baby will be born before all the holidays so they'll all see him then. The ones not in my immediate family don't know where I live so.. Lol. I don't wanna be selfish though so idk what to do.

Nurses at hospitals are aware that this is stressful for some moms, so if you mention this to them, they will not allow visitors and will take the "blame."

i think its better that way so that when you go home they all wont be at your house, an they should be able to understand that your tierd
