Thanks guys, being the moody person that I am at the moment it bought a tear to my eye to know that I wasn't asking too much.

I was really beginning to feel like I was wrong and asking to much and to be totally blatent DP was making me feel like an outright b*****.

I've got 6 months to convince him to keep it all quiet, hopefully its enough time to really get my point across. The biggest thing is not having them wait during labour, who knows maybe I will change my mind about visitors when the time comes - after the baby is born and I have had a few hours to myself/ourselves.

So far though it has been really stressful trying to talk to him about it and even more so that he has already told them what my wishes were and with how they reacted.

Thanks again for the support I really appreciate it.

PS I love the sign with the pen and paper on the door idea, I will definately be doing that!!!
