Hi everyone, I really need a bit of advice here please. Originally I was only going to have DH present at the birth (it's our first baby btw) but have recently been inundated with requests from family friends, sisters in law and my own mother who would like to witness the whole show.
A couple of years ago I would not have hesitated to have my mother attend but unfortunately our relationship is not what it used to be and I must say I was rather surprised when she told me she expected to be involved.
I guess my question is, should I consider having some/all of these people in the room or is it best to just be on our own? And if you have told someone they can't attend, did they take it well or did they sulk?!
All opinions welcome, thanks.
