[quote=Anonymous]Yes, stand your ground. This is only the first of many fights with the grands you'll probably have as you raise your kid. Always keep in mind that everyone is saying that they want to be helpful. So figure out what would be most helpful to you, and inform them, in detail. *You* decide which set you want to come first, and when. *You* decide for how long. Then tell them. They may have some requests that are reasonable to you -- if so, accommodate. If they are being unreasonable, then stand your ground. This is about you, your family, and your kid. Period. There will be plenty of time when the kid is older to cater to whims of family. The newborn period is not that time. [/quote]
