What do you do if you don't want your MIL in room and I don't have the excuse of wanting my mom with me b/c she died of cancer when I was 16. I do want one of 5 sisters in room but I also don't want to offend my other sisters. I wish we could live in a world where we get what we want without people getting their panties in a bunch. It makes me want to just do it with my hubs but he don't have a clue how to help me. Any thoughts?
@talinani you let the one sister know you'd like her there for you. The others will get over it (sisters always do) if they are upset you say that it's not a popularity contest you chose "X" because of reasons...as for mil IF she brings it up you thank her for the offer but you and DH have decided it will be him and your sister, but you will call her to come meet LO as soon as you can. Good luck
