[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mother of four here. I don't understand why any woman would want and audience during delivery. . [/quote] My mom is an RN with 35 years of experience. I love having her there whenever I go into the hospital for any reason, as she is a terrific advocate, can decode doctor-speak and works well with the nurses. She also watched the EFM and alerted the doc that something was wrong when my son was born (his heartbeat was dropping badly and the actual nurses didn't notice because of the shift change.) Without her there he could have been in serious trouble as DH and I don't know how to read those machines. I completely realize that my mom is not OP's and I would kick OP's mom out too. I don't want my MIL there. But to make blanket statements about how you can't imagine anyone wanting their mother around is pretty narrow-minded.[/quote] The PP you're quoting used the word "audience," not "mother." World of difference. [/quote]
