I birthed my children at a birth center. They never mentioned any limit to me... It was like a home birth, so probably no limit, technically.
Are you delivering in a hospital? If so, there is probably a limit... with the flu issues, a lot of hospitals have lowered their limits. You'd need to check with your facility.

Good luck!

Just as a woman’s heart knows,

How and when to pump,

Her lungs to inhale,

And her hand to pull back from fire,

So she knows when and how to give birth.

I am not really sure, but I am planning on only having my husband (maybe a doula) in the room with me... so I have told everyone else that only one person is allowed in with me so there can't be any drama lol!
