How do you deal with family asking to be at your baby's birth when you don't want anyone there but your husband? I've made it clear and I keep getting guilt tripped, like they won't take no for an answer. Thinking about not calling anyone at all when I go into labor...
Right before i had to start pushing they were getting me ready and asked me who i wanted there and the NURSES made sure that the people i wanted gone left until he was born.
If they try and come to the hospital you can tell your nurses you don't want anyone in there except your husband and they will all make sure no one comes in that you don't want there.

I'm doing the same thing. Just my fiance in the room. I thought my family would throw a fit, but very surprisingly they were fine with it. My mom and aunt just want to know so they can be in the waiting room just in case I change my mind or anything happens lol
I had many arguments planned out in my head for nothing 😂
@damiensmommy1117, i know what you mean! That's what I want for us 😭 just some privacy until we're ready for visitors! I probably won't tell anyone
@arivera64, I will have to talk to my midwife about that next time I go in, thanks I didn't think of that! ☺️
If they aren't accepting the answer and they are trying to push it on me, that's when I get mean and tell them to deal with it. It's a day specifically for the start of my own little family and I want some damn privacy with them. If they still don't stop then I would do as you said and just not tell anyone when I go into labor.
I blasted fb with a very clear "no one" is coming in when I'm in labor and if anyone shows up unannounced they will not be allowed in the room. Very glad I did Bc I had a hard labor and a 10 lb. baby!
They'll em to fork off an don't call anyone!
