I am 37 weeks pregnant. I'm visiting the hospital I am giving birth at and my husband and I have been discussing our babies birth plan. He doesn't want anyone in the room when I deliver our son. But I kind of expected my mom to be there as well . My son will be the first grandchild for both families so it's kind of a big deal . I had mentioned to his mom she could be present as well, since she's also the babies grandma. We have argued over this and I don't understand why he is being so stubborn about it and he can't really tell me why he doesn't want them there. I come from a super close family and my mother has witnessed all of my cousins births. How do I tell my mom she can't be in the room when I'm giving birth? Or do I just tell my husband to suck it up and get over it ? I want this experience to be a beautiful memory for my husband and I but I would also like to share this with my mom. What do I do ?

I think that if your husband is adamant about it only being you two in there then you should respect it but it's really all up to your I know it's a hard decision to make though, good luck!
I understand it's his kid too, but you are the one going through labor, you are the one who needs all the support, you are the one who needs to have anyone that makes you feel more comfortable in the room because it's you going through the pain, and if you want you mom (like a lot of women do) tell him you need her there to get you through it. And he should understand..
Ask him why he only wants you two in the room when you give birth. Maybe once he tells you why you will understand. Plus it might make you closer experiencing this together.
I don't what to tell you what to decide but if ur husband doesn't want anyone in there respect it he might want to be there for you the whole way and he probably wants to experience this with you only but good luck
I agree with @alyssabrittany try to find out why he doesn't want anyone there, then explain why you do. Most women do want someone like their mom there, especially someone who has already gone through labor.
