[quote=Anonymous]my inlaws aren't as dysfunctional sounding as yours, nor did you we a total non existent relationship, but we weren't as close as i would have liked. i hoped when my sil had her first that would help things and it didn't. and i was so hopeful that when i had my first, it would change things. it didn't. i think its great that you want to try, and you should, but don't set your expectations too high and end up disappointed and/or resentful. they have to want the relationship just as much as you do. i think keeping them updated on pictures and videos, what the baby is doing (sitting, crawling, loves bananas!, etc) is the most you can do on a day to day basis unless they show some interest.[/quote]
