CN, she is NOT going to go away! He can hope all he wants to.

Can't you all just keep it hush, hush until it is over.... tell as few people as you can and quietly go and have the baby, then when she is up to company, make the big "announcement".... THEN, if she wants to know why she wasn't called in your company...tell her!.... and I'd say "We didn't tell you because we didn't want you there to pi** the doctor off and to upset the new Mom."
