Single mum labour

Hello single mummies out there, how was your birth/ labour like? Did a family member such as mum accompany you? I don’t have a close relation with my mum, and I do feel awkward with her. I feel like going through the whole birth session alone. Is that recommended? TIA!

I went alone , I was 18 then . was having strong braxton Hicks for the last month and I thought it was another regular day until I started bleeding and started feeling cramps , so I went down to kkh alone only to realise I was 6-7cm dilated , but when I was in the labor room I actually hoped that I had asked my close Friend or my mom to be with me even tho I feel awkward with my mom being around , but whatever that is comfortable for u ! All the best !
