Mother at birth?

Ro

Ladies... did you invite your mother to the birth of your first baby?

Can’t decide what to do. I love my mom - she’s my best friend. I know she would love to be there! I worry she might step on my husband’s toes as the birth coach, though. Also wonder whether I’d rather have a few hours with our new baby to ourselves (hubby and I) before anyone else meets her.

Curious to hear some experiences...

Thanks :)

**EDIT: should have mentioned, hubby is a nurse! So, he’s more than equipped for hospital stress and everything that the birthing process entails. I wouldn’t want him to feel belittled in that position, by my mom who has given birth 6 times and will definitely have opinions and lots of “advice”

😉. That’s mainly where the hesitation stems from. Such a hard decision!!
