I feel that it is a time for me and DP given that it is our first baby but my mum seems to think otherwise. Not only did she assume that she would be there for the birth, she was apparently planning to move in for 2 weeks to 'help out' when I get home from hospital. Is this usual? (I should say that she lives about 1.5 hours away which is manageable on the train in a day...)
