Try to get a birthign room with a shower. My wife thought that helped a lot.
Remember - what you want, what your family wants, and what anybody who is not your wife wants is totally unimportant. The woman is doing the work here, so everybody else can just piss off.
Your mom wants to "just pop in to see how things are going but your wife doesn't want her there?" Sorry, mom. Piss off.
Here's something that worked for us. After its all over and things have calmed down a bit, IF YOUR WIFE SAYS IT IS OK, go get some good food and bring it back to the hospital for you both. My wife felt "too tired to eat" both times. Hospital food is easy to turn down. But when I showed up with her favorite tacos, she demolished them in seconds flat.
Have fun
