[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So I am pregnant with my first, due in 8 weeks (all things going to plan).  His parents have told him that they need to be called when I go into labor so they can be here for the birth and visiting in the hospital afterwards (they live 3 hours away).  They are planning on staying in the area for a week after the birth.  I do not want this, nor do I want them at the hospital, I only want DH.  My parents, who are local, will come visit if I want in the hospital as well, but I want to wait and see how I feel.  DH will not back down, and says this parents deserve the same rights as mine, and they are coming whether I like it or not.  I don't really want anyone around at the hospital, or when I get home, trying to BF, bleeding, etc.

I have tried everything-backing off, coming back at it, calmly, yelling, appealing to his better sense-he just won't listen to me about wanting privacy, all he can talk about is how it's not fair my parents will be around and his aren't.  My mom will most likely spend some time overnight when we first come home, and he's now saying that his mom should be able to as well, since it's only fair.  I just don't know wtf to do anymore...he's never been like this before!

Am I being unreasonable, or is he?[/quote]

You are supposed to be a team and if your parents get to be there, then he has the same right for his parents to be there.  Yes, you are being more than unreasonable, you are being mean and don't chalk this up to your hormones, which is BS, anyway.  [/quote]
