    You know, I hadn't consciously acknowledged it, but I feel the same way... I want to spend at least a little time when I (finally) go into labour alone - just relishing in the fact that it's actually happening and I will get to meet my baby soon. It's a beautiful idea .
    Yes!

    And there is something magical and powerful about being the only person in the universe who knows you are in labour, and coping. I am woman hear me roar!

    Oscar... i totally agree, labour is such an amzing thing and it is nice to have some time alone to reflect what's happening with your body and knowing that your about to birth you little baby girl. Look forwrad to hearing about your birth.

    I was at home in bed when my labour started. So, DH was there, and of course, he straight away wanted to go into hospital and call people to tell them we were there, even though it was 2am.

    It was great that he was there and all, but in hindsight, I kinda wish my labour had started in the middle of the day when he was at work. He was all over me, and very distracting and even almost annoying, and I needed my personal space and privacy! I wanted to experience labour and have it to myself for a little while. Future babies of mine, I hope to just be by myself for at least some of the labour before having other people showing up.
