I wanted to go into the "ABC" room, the alternate birth center but my labor was too painful and I had to have an epidural, the abc room was just for natural birth...it turned out to be a c-section so only my husband was there, my sister was upset she had gone through lamaze with us.

With my second I had my sister and my hubby, the abc was not an option for a vbac. My parents did come in during the labor process just not the actual birth.
