"I wasn't asked if it was OK that she could be there and because I was being stitched up on theatre still, she held my DD (darling daughter) before I even got to."
The woman said she was angry and upset about this as she and her husband had agreed not to see visitors for at least a day after the birth, "let alone have MIL (mother-in-law) there before I'd even held my own child."
The woman's doctor came in and disclosed some "very personal" medical information in front of her mother in law, she added.
She continued that she was "livid" with the midwives and upset that her husband hadn't advocated for her more.
"I'm actually in tears this morning thinking about it all again and so angry and upset still."
She said she didn't want to upset her husband by bringing it up further.
