I'm doing the same my family and in laws stress me out. The only person I want in the hospital with me while I'm having my baby is my fiancée. I'm going to call everyone after the baby is born. I want the first moments with mine and my fiancées first baby and I know everyone will want to be there and hold her/him. So whether it sounds mean or not.. I'm sticking to my plan :)
That sound so right and I think ima do what you said call after my baby is born .. But thanks and congrats on your baby
Good luck to you and your baby!!
You call who ever you want there with you; it's your baby and your decision. Don't worry about what anyone else has to say about it. Go with your cousin, let her/him help you through the process and then when you're ready you let everyone else know. Especially if they stress you out. I'm 36 weeks now and starting to dilate, due any day now and the only person I want there with me is my boyfriend. His parents make me feel awkward and my parents stress me out, so the only person I want in the hospital and during labor with me is him. When my son comes out I will let everyone know. It does sound wrong and feel kind of selfish but honestly it's what I'm most comfortable with and that's all that matters to me, I'm the one giving birth not them.
Its ur baby ur body and totally ur decision do what ever u feel comfortable with =) congrats and goodluck
