Delivery Room

"BF/BD" has not showed much interest in my pregnancy or welcoming my baby girl! currently past my due date which means a good chance ill go into labor annnny day now!! All of my family and people I want in the delivery room as my support live thousands of miles away.. Although BD and have talked about how much it means for me to have him there for support can't help but think I will be in the delivery room alone!! How do you deal with that?!

Re: Delivery Room

  • I had my sister in the delivery room but she came later....I labored by myself with nurses around me. And honestly those nurses were awesome. It seems like you can't help that you will be alone when having this baby, and I bet your hospital has helped a woman deliver a baby on her own before. So don't stress out about it too much. I know it will be hard to do but focus on getting the baby out.

  • I didn't have to be in the delivery room alone, but the next few days in the hospital I was pretty much alone the entire time and the nurses were so awesome! They stayed and talked with me and made sure I wasn't bored or lonely. I'm sure they would be the same way, if not better, in the delivery room. And really, I don't think I would have really noticed being alone in the delivery room. You just focus on the getting the baby out and everything else is pretty irrelevant.

  • My baby's father had a change of heart when I was 20wks along and he hasn't bothered to contact me and now has his new gf pregnant. Tbh when we broke up he said he wanted to be there but he can kiss my ass. I tend to pick the winners lol So I have prepared myself to go through labor alone. My mom will probably be there, although I am still sketchy about it because she tends to overreact and get emotional and makes things out to be about her and I won't put up with it during labor. I need support and if I have to get it from the nurses then so be it. I already have 3 kids, my oldest being 13 and youngest being 7. Its sad and it gets me down but you have to be positive and push through the negatives for your health and for the baby. In the end you are the one that will be there for LO so try to always keep that in mind :)
