My name is Ashley and I am 23 years old. I am pregnant with my first baby and it's a boy. I have been married to my husband for 1.5 yrs, we've been together for 3.5 yrs. So far this pregnancy has been wonderful. No morning sickness, no moodiness, no special cravings, just a bigger appetite and belly. :) That's pretty much how I knew it was a boy... the belly size. I am going to have a hypnobirth and girls let me tell you that the class on hypnobirthing is GREAT! I would highly recommend it. No drugs, all baby and me during labor. Mike and I have picked out a name for our son, it will be Adam Michael Simpers. I'm very excited and can't wait to meet him face to face.

I can imagine it was hard to concentrate being relegated to hospital interference. I'm glad to know that the breathing helped. I'm so glad you hav a healthy baby.

Did you try any of the hypnobirthing methods? If so, did they work? Please share the lowdown with me when you can. Thanks.

I have to let you know... My mom did the same thing. My husband and I have had many heated discussion over the birthing topic and who will be in the room. My mom stresses me out when I am not pregnant and honestly this is not her baby which she would like to think it is because she has told me on several occasions that she really hopes i will be agood mom.. She wasnt the best mom so i think she does that to piss me off. She has tried to guilt me into letting her into to room and now everytime i have a dr appt and i dont call she thinks i went into labor and calls me 10 times and calls my whole family to see if i have contacted them. She has even gotten into arguments with my mother in law over things because my mom is just like that!! She also said well do you want me to just wait in the waiting room the whole time and i said no you do want you want and if you come later then thats fine.. So she said noo i will be waiting just incase you change your mind, omg im not changing my mind unless somethung drastic happened and i really needed her there! But my sister knows not to let her in and if i need someone besides my husband my sister is coming in, she is very calm and knows the right things to say unlike my mom.. you arent the only on dealing with a very controlling mother!!!!!

Don't give in to your mom's guilt trip! To be honest with you-- she reminds me of my father-in -law. LOL. He was talking about all the people who would want to be in the delivery room when I was about 3 months pregnant. I cut it short right then by saying "Well that's not gonna happen..." I think he is still upset with me now because my husband and I said we're not going to call everyone until AFTER the baby is born... I too want that time for me and my husband. For all I know I could be in labor for 24 hours..... I don't want my family waiting all day and night-- then I'd feel guilted into letting them come in before I was ready...

simpers, it is time you stand your ground. The two most important people in this world from now on are going to be your husband and your child. I have no doubt that having third person in the delivery room will take some intimacy out of your husband's birthing experience. he might feel left out. So if you must choose who to upset, I would definitely choose to leave your mother unsatisfied. There is al ong and difficult journey ahead of you and your husband - you need to do everything to let him bond with you and your baby the strongest.

HI
I read your notes on your mom..
I sorry You are hurting right now over this.
I sure you both really love each other and Both had plan on how thing should go.
I myself say show her kindness and be firm in love to her.

It may be hard for her now but maybe in time she will understand
For myself I coudl not let my mom in LOL
I love her but she would drive me nuts LOL
She know it too!

You are now married and this should be between what you and your hubby wants.

Good for you for telling her even tho it hurts...
forgive her and move on Your baby boy will need you all!

PS I love you photos!!! The ribbon is just love;y!

Just stick to your decision and don't let her make you feel bad. It sounds like she knows exactly how to work you. This is your baby and your big day and it should go exactly how you plan it to. It also sounds like having her there will just stress you out. Its a very special moment and you need to share it with your husband. Try your hardest to just be happy right now and not let anyone stress you out. Good luck!

Hey there, I just read your comment about your mom wanting to be in the delivery room with you. I totally understand what you mean. I've never given birth before, but I did assist my cousin when she gave birth to her daughter two years ago. Her mom, mother in law and some other lady on her MIL's side of the family waiting in the waiting area. They waited there the whole night except when she was in the labouring stage, they barged in without asking a few times. I was getting really annoyed and I wasn't even the one in labour.
Anyways, after I experienced that with my cousin, I knew right off the bat that when it would be my turn to deliver my baby, I wouldn't give myself any kind of stress like that. My mom too wanted to be in the delivery room, but besides being my mom, she's also a nurse so I think it would piss me off even more that she'd be there telling me what to do. I told her as soon as she asked that I would not be even telling anyone that I was in labour or going to the hospital. And that is exactly what I plan on doing. I don't want the stress of anyone "waiting" weather at home or at the hospital for me to have this baby.
Keep your backbone and this is your baby and you should have it in what ever setting you feel most comfortable. The more comfortable and relax you are during labour, the easier it goes (so I hear). Don't let her do this guilt trip on you and stand your ground!! Of course this does not mean that you love her any less.
Good luck!

Stick to your guns, hun. If you don't, you'll regret it later. No replays on this one and you and hubby deserve to enjoy it YOUR way. If your mom is that manipulative outside the delivery room, I don't blame you for not wanting her there. Hope everything works out. big hugs
