2nd Trimester

Reason #1 my mom will not be in the delivery room...

I told her I may get bitchy during the whole, ya know, painful labor process. Her response? "Oh, I won't hesitate to put you in your place." Um, I am giving birth lady, not staying out past curfew.

:::crosses mom's name off the list:::

  • yeah, you need someone to kiss your ass during that time...not "put you in your place"

    good luck!

  • Does your mom actually want to be in the room?  Mine doesn't.  Thank Goodness.  There is no way that she would be invited anyway.

    Unfortunately, yes she does. I'll have to break it to her gently.

  • lol, i can so hear my mom saying something like that. I was undecided and leaning more towards no but after this I think its almost an official No. I'd rather take my lashing/being put in my place, for not having her in there prebirth than while i'm giving birth.
  • LOL just remember that you can blame all your mean comments to her on being in pain. My mom is a sucker for all of us kids so she will be there. DH was scared sh!tless when I was in labor with DD and my mom was a saint so I'm expecting the same from DD and my mom to be my personal massage therapist while in labor this time.
  • Oo.. I am so glad my mother lets me *** and complain and then she does the same to me. More of a friend thing than a mom and daughter thing. I think it was her way of?coping?with a bitchy me at 13 and it just work out.

    I don't want my mom in the room, but then again I am not sure if I want DH there to make sarcastic comments?ether, and I think if my mother is there to tell off DH then I will be able to handle it.?

  • My mom wants to be in the room.  She was there for DS birth and she was gerat support.  DS dad was all about watching the birth and had nothing to do with me.  If mom can make it in time (she lives an hour away) she's more than welcome in this time as well. 

    Sorry your mom isn't the support you need.

  • My mom doesn't want to be in the room.  She said she has seen everything but that she doesn't need to see all of that.  I think this was said when I was on first tri  "if you weren't in the room when the baby was put in my belly than you won't be in the room when that baby comes out of my belly"

     I agree with this...

  • Oh that is my mother.  She will make the experience about her some how, cause you know she is the expert. Thank goodness she hasn't asked but if she does the answer will be no.
