[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When it comes to birth, you make the call. It's that simple. [b]Most people don't get every single thing they want in this world, and your MIL's feelings about not having a daughter are hers to manage. Frankly, it's unkind of your MIL to pressure you in this way. [/b] Tell your DH that if he wants to listen to his mom make such complaints, that's up to him, but that you would prefer to hear no more about it, and that the answer is no. Figure out between you and DH when you want her to come after the birth, and let him communicate that, especially as it doesn't seem that she has talked to you directly.[/quote] +100 That's life. You don't get everything you want. MIL should focus on loving her healthy grandchildren and let this go. Or at least not burden OP with her disappointment. It's very presumptuous to expect to be invited to witness someone else giving birth, and not ok to guilt a woman over wanting her privacy. [/quote]
