[quote=Anonymous]My son was born at 32 weeks and spent 2weeks in the NICU, all hooked up. He is now 8, has asthma, and has pulmonary complications nearly every time he goes down with something. My chain-smoking parents change their smoking habits every time we visit. They do not smoke indoors, and even though their clothes and bodies do smell, they make every effort to aerate their house and clothing. They hate scents of any kind. Could your MIL do this? She needs to live with open windows, and keep a clean house (wash her curtains regularly, etc). That will eliminate the need for those horrible scented candles, etc. If she is willing to wash her hands and face in the powder room, and change her clothing when she visits, it is very good of her. No smoking inside your house, of course. You need to separate the very real fear you have for your fragile baby (I know!) from the reasonable demands you can make of your MIL. Good luck to your little one. [/quote]
