[quote=Anonymous]There's no way I'd want my MIL there, but mostly because it's impossible for her to just sit back and lay low. She'd be commenting on everything, giving her opinions, asking questions and being a busybody. I'd probably blow up at her at some point, which of course, I'd later regret but the damage would be done and she'd never get over that. There would be more potential for the situation to be awful and do damage to our relationship than there would be for it to better the relationship. And if it was my last child, I would probably want it to be just DH and me knowing that we would never have that experience again. OP, maybe there is another way for MIL to be involved with this child in lieu of being in the delivery room, something she didn't get to do or experience with the other grandkids. This way you're acknowledging how special this occasion is to her, even though you're not able to accommodate the specific request she made to be in the delivery room.[/quote]
