I'm with your DH I am afraid.
I can totally see where he is coming from. Your parents can 'be there' without actually being there...
Having said this, it is important that he takes your views into account.
You might find that it is more special just having you two the and then your parents can be there first thing and be the first to see your little one.
For me, it will be just my DH and myself until baby is born. This is our family and I need it to be special for us. However important our parents are to us, we are in this together. I feel that if we start off together, we can go on forever together.
I am not meaning to preach; just giving you a different view that I have, to maybe try to help you see more where your Oh is coming from.
It's the most important thing in your life and you have to be comfortable - you're the one pushing a 'watermelon' out of your body! Hope you come to a happy decision for all. Xx
