I think that only the husband should attend cause it is kind of akward to have a bunch of people starring between your les while youre trying to have a baby.

I think it is up to the expecting couple also, with my first one, it was only my husband that was present, but this time my husband will definatley be there and i am giving my daughter her choice whether she wants to be there or not. she is 20 years old and also pregnant. At first she said she wanted to be there but now that she is pregnant she is affraid if she go in, she will be terrified for her own delivery.

Anyone who the expecting couple feels needs to be there should be allowed to accompany them at their baby's birth. Of course there is room capacity to think about and if they have a large number of people they want to share the moment with, perhaps a home birth is a better idea.

I beleive its up to the expecting couple as too who they want in the room. When I had my first child I only wanted my Mom and of course my husband there with me. Now that we are expecting our second child I also want my Mom and husband in there as well as my first born. I think it's going to be a great experience :)

Personally, I feel that this wonderful experience should be shared only with immediate family. I only want my husband and my mother & mother-in-law present. I think too many people just get distracting, and can take away from the experience. You have a whole life-time to share your baby, the first few moments I want to be selfish, and keep as many kisses to myself!

I think only your partner should be there. Too many people would make me uncomfortable.
