@tiredmom, thankfully I have a husband who understands!

@veropetty you have your friend and husband to help you stand up for what you want. Use them, they're there to help you.

@tiredmom, man this is going to be a tough one. seriously 😌

@veropetty you just have to remember that you're the mom now. What you say goes.

@tiredmom, I figured that's how all moms are. It sucks!

@veropetty she was mad. But my sister handled it. She even tried to pick my second one up in the hallway after my c-section. The nurse jumped her shit for that one.

@tiredmom, oh man. how did your mom take it? cause, I know my mom will be beyondddddd pissed if I do that. But tbh idc, it's my day.

@veropetty I didn't want my mom in the room with me at all either time. So I told the nurse and she made her leave. I ended up having an emergency c-section the first time and luckily my sister was there to make sure my mom wasn't the first one to hold my son (one of the many reasons I didn't want her in the room)

@tiredmom, that's EXACTLY what I was thinking. Like not call my mom until I'm giving birth or something ha. Because, seriously I can just see how stressful & annoyed I'll be already.

Tell your Dr at the next appointment. Don't call your mom till you're in a room. Tell your nurse at the hospital who you want in the room. They won't allow anyone other than the people you want in the room when it's time. And yeah dad in the room is weird to me.
