How many people in delivery room?

It seems that everyone in my family wants to be in the room with me. Chat Icon

I thought it was 2 or maybe even just one. I'm delivering at Good Sam if that helps. TIA!

Re: How many people in delivery room?

I'm pretty sure we were allowed 2 people in the delivery room, but I only had DH.

People were allowed to visit me in the delivery room in the beginning stages of labor though.

Honestly, I only wanted DH there, I wasn't in the mood to entertain anyone.

I have no clue, but you have in there who you want.

Right now, I know I want DH only, but I have a feeling I'm going to have an "I want my mommy" moment at some point.

I am not sure about your hospital. Do what you feel best doing. I am only having DH because I am having a C, but even if we weren't and we had family here, I would just have DH.

Re: How many people in delivery room?

Oh Hellz no.
The only people in that delivery room with me are going to my DH and the medical staff.
I doubt any of my friends/family would have the balls to ask- nor woudl they WANT to be in there.
Either way I'd rip their heads off if they even brought it up!

Re: How many people in delivery room?

My mom has always said she wants to be in there and truthfully I think I want her there. As wonderful as DH is I think she will be able to help me in different ways during the labor KWIM. But then my sister asked, and then her fiance wanted to know if he could come in too! Chat Icon I told them no, lol.

Re: How many people in delivery room?

With my first DS, my mom and DH were in the room. This time it will be just DH.

Re: How many people in delivery room?

I'm on the fence. My mom really wants to be in there and we are best friends but I sort of feel like it should just be DH and I. I feel like its something he and I share together alone. I also have a feeling like I am going to have an "i want mommy" moment.

Re: How many people in delivery room?

I found out my hospital's rules:

2 people in labor/delivery room if you're going for a v-birth.

1 person if you're having a c/s.

So this makes it a lot easier to tell people they can't be there, lol. And the waiting room is downstairs in the main hospital lobby. So DH will be there. Maybe my mom also during labor. During pushing/delivery, ONLY my DH.

I'm not sure about your hospital, but maybe if they have a website they will say it on there. I'm having my DH and my mom with me for the delivery.

In Good Sam your allowed two others. They give your DH a bracelet and one other if you want. It will only be me and DH.
