[quote=Anonymous]If I were you, I'd tell my mom that if she couldn't respect my wishes about not coming to see baby until after I'd been cleaned up, I just wouldn't tell her I was in labor until after baby was born. My mother is the queen of temper tantrums, but she also knows I'm not joking or making idle threats when I say things like that. Luckily for me she lives several states away, so there's no way she could just show up at the hospital. As for the "advice", PPs are right, you can only control your reaction. In my mind I often pretend that my mom is just another busybody coworker who wants to share their version of the "right" way to do things. So she hears alot of "Oh, I'll have to think about that." Or "that's interesting". Or even "I think we're ok with what we've decided, but I'll let you know if we need any help." [/quote]
