I am also thinking of doing this. I will ask my parents and sister to do it, as we see them all the time. They should be fine about it. DH's parents we don't see much, and I am worried that they will be offended - his father is a very touchy manchild who takes offence at pretty much everything. I mentioned it to DH and he thought I was overreacting. He's not close to his parents and I would feel awkward about asking them, but at the same time I am very concerned about whooping cough and my newborn. I kind of feel that they'll probably only pop into hospital when the baby is born, then we might not see them a lot after that - do people think it would still be worthwhile asking them to have it done? What have people done about aunts and uncles? I guess all the family will come when we're in hospital or in the few days afterwards at home. Perhaps I'll just breastfeed constantly and not let anyone hold the baby?
