[quote=Anonymous]I am one of the PPs, just a few follow-ups: 1) Let go of your mother spending the night. She is nearby, and if you are in a desperate emergency you and DH can't handle, she can come over. That solves your MIL spending the night. 2) Point out that you will call each set of parents AFTER the birth and TELL THEM THEN when you want visitors. If your parents are local, they don't really need to wait at the hospital. So far, so good, right? Everything's fair? 3) Engage your OB. Go into your next appointment, and ask the OB to talk about what the post-partum recovery is like, how often the baby will breast-feed, how hard it is or isn't, what it's like for a c-section.... 4) And, save this one, remind him if that if everything in the world was fair, he'd get to experience the "joys" of pregnancy and childbirth also. But his body isn't going through drastic changes, his life isn't at risk, so you're just asking for a little consideration.[/quote]
