I never really wanted anyone else in there, but I did think my mom or dad could come in to relieve DH every now and then.
However the hospital policy is only the father (or partner) is allowed in L&D.

I only want DH-I'm not sure how many would be allowed if I wanted more though.

DH, my doula (who isn't considered one of my personal 2), and my sister who is an RN - just to deal with the nurses in case we have any issues...

I only want DH. But he says he'll be in the waiting room with a scotch and a cigar.

DH & another person during labor (actually, I think they said you could have a couple people in the room at a time during labor, since it may take forever). My sister is a L&D nurse upstate, so if she makes it here, she'll rotate in/out with my mom...it will be reassuring to have her in there, telling me things are normal, etc. But during delivery, I think it can just be DH & another person if I want, then I'm torn between my mom & my sister

DH and thats it! We had a family BBQ over the weekend where I was STRESSING the fact that no one else will be seeing me until after the baby is born.

When my sister delivered there a few years ago, my BIL was able to bring me in after the baby was born.

Re: How many people do you want or are allowed in the L&D room?
At first I only wanted DH. When the day came I decided I wanted my mom too. It worked out great because she was taking pics while DH and I were consumed with the birth.

Re: How many people do you want or are allowed in the L&D room?
I had my dh and my mom for the delivery...my dad popped in before the labor was really tough as did my ILs...if I had to do it again, I wouldn't have had my MIL in there when the labor was getting difficult because it was too stressful for me to feel like I was being observed...
