I am a strong believer that child birth is an experience for you and your husband. I know everyone is excited but they can see the baby afterwards. DO NOT feel bad about speaking your mind about this. You will regret it if you give in. And as far as being selfish...there is nothing wrong with being selfish in this case. However, they are the one's who appear to be selfish. I have had 2 deliveries (3 kids) and it never even crossed my mind to have anyone there but my husband...it's not a party

The bottom line is do whatever makes you comfortable. Some people would let an entire army in there while giving birth. Others see it as and experience to be shared by the mother and father to be only. Either way I feel the choice is yours.View Thread


Baby A (Emma) weighed in at 2lbs 11oz and baby B (Reagan) weighed in at 3lbs 4oz. Both babies are doing very well and breathing on their own. I'm pumping what I can, but my milk hasn't really come in yet. I will be discharged on Thursday and am dreading going home without the twins. They are so precious! I know they are in good hands and have a long road ahead of them but I feel encouraged by how well they are doing so far.View Thread
