General consensus is not tell him I'm on labor.

I was worried that he *might* have been able to somehow get some legal thing telling me he had to be there.
But no, I do not plan on telling him I'm in labor if I don't HAVE to.
If it were upto me, I would like to not tell him for a few months after....but that's unrealistic.
At least at the hospital there are people around, who can and will tell him and make him get out if he starts anything
