I went public with everything and had no dramas at all. Of course you are in your own private room when you are in labour and at my hospital there was only two ladies to each maternity room anyway, and personally I liked the company.

With Kameron I had a lady with me the night I delivered and she went home the next day so I had the room to myself anyway. With Lachlan I was alone the first 24 hrs then another lady joined me, and it was nice to have someone to chat too who had just gone thru labour herself.
