    I've heard of people having everyone but the plumber in there. No, not me. First, I don't particulary relish the thought of my family member seeing THAT much of my body. Second, I think it would just be irritating and distracting. I'd end up screaming at someone, I'm sure.

    I know people who have video taped the whole thing, then had basically a party later and invited a lot of people over to see it. Ummmm .... NO.

    joycenalex what a crazy story!

    I just had my 1st 3 months ago and the hospital would not allow a bunch of people in the delivery room. They even suggested not having anyone in the waiting room since things tended to take so long, especially with a first birth.

    I had my husband only. If I could do it over I would try to have a doula with me to be my coach, someone I had been working with. My husband is great but it was his first time too and we were both nervous and forgot what we learned in class. The nurse working that night was great but she had a different style than what I had learned and read about so I felt I was pushing in a more traditional way rather than some of the "newer" positions.
