[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom came the day we got discharged, she was an asset during the early days at home.[b] I made her work (laundry, walking the dog, dishes, etc.)[/b]. My in-laws came when baby was 3 weeks. They stayed at a hotel which was key for us. There’s no way I could have handled them at our home.

I think it really depends on the parents. Will they be helpful? Will you be comfortable if they stay at your house and you’re nursing?

As for covid/ health protocols, we made all the parents get flu shot, TDAP, covid x 3 and they had to covid test before leaving and on arrival. [/quote]

Aren't you special.  Do you always make your family work for the privilege  of seeing you? I get needing help but it seems over the top!    I love how the father's parents and the mother's parents are treated so differently and then DIL wonder why the paternal grandparents aren't as close.[/quote]

I’m a DP but did you even read the post before responding rudely? If the paternal grandparents are helpful and make the new mother comfortable then they’ll have the same access as her parents.

The kind of grandparents who want to be entertained by a woman who just gave birth are not a loss if they’re not close to the child later— regardless of whose parents they were.[/quote]
