[quote=Anonymous]Honestly, I think you'll be tired of them after four days! You can cut your work in half by not talking to your ILs and making DH handle them. I would back off on talking to your parents too...don't pick up the phone so often, etc, but also be direct. "Mom, we've discussed this several times, and I'm tired of repeating myself, so let's drop it, ok?"...."No? Ok, I need to get off the phone and go rest. Bye!" "Mom, if it makes you uncomfortable to be more self-sufficient during this stressful time, we'd be happy to host you in our home when the baby is six weeks old." You might consider waiting until the baby is born to notify them that anything is going on, rather than telling them when you go to the hospital. It will delay their arrival and give you some space. Just a thought.[/quote]
