[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have they actually  asked you to visit them more or asked to visit you more? Or were they just making a comment?[/quote]

Mil is currently both making that comment and refusing to visit us until we visit them. Tears and all to dh that we aren’t close so of course he booked a guilt trip.  They are 60s, healthy, and affluent [/quote]

First grandchild?  It makes some women go crazy for awhile.  If she hadn't thought through what it means that you guys live six hours away, even more so.  She's putting her angst and emotional adjustment on you guys.

What really needs to happen is for DH to have a chat with his parents, remind them that both your time off is limited due to having just had a child and all the sick time associated with it.  He can help them get comfortable with the notion that they need to do more of the traveling if they want to see their grandchild frequently.

How often did you see them before, and in which location?  How much of a change is this?  And I would add, hang in there until your child is just a bit older and consider that DH could make the trip out ot see them just him and DS, so you get a weekend break![/quote]
