No idea how to handle this...Brother and SIL

Hi everyone!


I could really use some advice on how to handle a very delicate situation.


I will be 39 weeks pregnant tomorrow with a little girl. My brother and his wife are adopting her.


Yesterday, while discussing labor, which can happen at any time, I made a comment that while right now I might be ok with them being in the room, to not be surprised if I suddenly tell them to get out, as I don't know how I might feel when delivery time actually comes.


She then said "oh I'm not leaving". I was so shocked and flabbergasted that I didn't say anything.


It's not easy for me, on the contrary, I'm feeling a lot of anxiety about the delivery. And if I feel that way now, who knows how I'll feel when the time comes.


I'm not worried about the delivery itself, it's not my first rodeo, but more so the emotions that will come with it. Part of me wants to be alone and meet her first, especially with how exposed I know I'll be, and the other part of me has never done this before alone and I'm scared.


I'm probably rambling here, so any advice as to how to handle it is appreciated!!
