Baby daddy drama no more but family issues linger

So not sure if this is baby Daddy drama or not, but my baby Daddy and I were not in a good space when I first found out that I was having a baby it was about four months before we could actually get back to being on the same page and at a place where we were ready to start trying to figure out how we mend our relationship for ourselves and for our baby boy .during the time that we were separated I of course share with my family all of my frustrations about my relationship with my child’s father and as always your family is going to ride for you. I have now since then reconciled with him and our son is due in December, but there are so many factors that are around the birth of our baby boy, for example my mom feels like he wasn’t around for the last four months so why should he be in the delivery room? Not only that but he and I currently do not live together and we live about 30 minutes away where traffic and logistics of getting back-and-forth to one another is going to be hard. He suggested that when the baby comes that I move in with him for a couple of weeks to get adjusted and then we would just alternate going back-and-forth to each other’s homes. In my mind this is probably something that would work considering that we are still mending our relationship and would like to do that while also acknowledging that we still have to parent this child. He is a very active father and he has stated that he was going to be active even before we had issues in our relationship, he has stated that he does not want us to go days on without being able to see his son . My family suggest that I’m the default parent and he should do what I want him to do but is this the right move.? I am considering moving in with him temporarily when the baby comes just to have us all in the same space mind you I’m also 40 years. When I told my mom he was gonna be in the delivery room, her response was “weird” and “interesting “ I just don’t know how to make my family happy and me happy at the same time

Well at the end of the day it is your choice

You need to do what makes you happy, I don't want to sound horrible but your mum sounds bitter. I understand she don't like him for whatever problems you and him had, but you are 40 years old, do what you decide is best for you and baby, not for your mum

Ur family opinion shouldn’t matter because they didn’t make the baby with u. Also there’s nothing wrong with the dad being there , it’s his child

I’m sorta in the same boat my family always have their opinions and it’s getting on my nerves like me and my baby daddy had issues mainly on his end he messaged his ex but he admitted he made a mistake and he was only trying to be on good terms with her but blocked her for me. We’ve been building up our relationship and I found out I’m 4 weeks pregnant I’ve told my sister not my mum yet but her response was are you sure you wanna go through with this baby because we all don’t like him and I don’t want you to be left again like your first baby which sucked from her
