Gee theres some pretty interfering people in our lives hey. I cringe reading all your stories.

Before DD was born we both discussed the problem of having people waiting for hours in the waiting room for our first born to arrive. I personally couldnt stand having that happen.
We decided that we wouldnt be telling anyone when we went into labour. It annoyed alot of people, especially parents, but the decision was ours and no one elses. The parents to be have all the say in the world about there precious family and there really isnt anything anyone can do or say to change that.

My mother barged in on my sisters for their deliverys and this rang in my ears the whole time. There would be no way id want my mother or MIL for that matter in the delivery sweet. Yuk Yuk supper Yuk. Its so wrong. I had my sister on stand by in case Dh couldnt handle it but she would only get the phone call to come if needed, she to didnt know when i went into labour just in case she couldnt contain herself and ring my mother.

My contractions started on a day for voting which was a bit inconvenient. I told my husband a bit before lunch when he rang from work not to stress or panic but the baby is on its way. When he got home i procedded to make him dinner through walking through the contractions. I knew it was going to be a long night so i couldnt have a hungry husband. Lol.
Im getting off the beaten track now so ill stop.
I dont plan on telling the relos when bub #2 comes either except for my sister who will be looking after DD. Hope she can keep her mouth shut. Family can be so annoying.
