I was thinking of having a doula with me anyways. But i think the hospital requires you to have a friend or family member with you.

Sammi - Thanks for letting me know he may be able to get off. But that would mean he'd still probably miss the birth. Since you cant predict that at all and if it was in the middle of the night, there would be no planes for him to come. Also i had a 5 hour labour with Lily so it'd probably be just as short. So im still stuck lol.
