[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tell her you want to get daycare lined up, but that you want her to see the baby as often as she likes. Tell her you want her to spend time with baby, but don't want to impose on her time. Ask her if she wants the whole family to get together weekly, and/or have a baby morning/afternoon alone once a week, and/or more than that? Assure her that you can be flexible with whatever she wants to do (and follow through -- grandma might say she wants to do weekly full days with baby, but need to scale back if she can't keep up). It might take some trial and error, but if you keep emphasizing that you'd love for her to spend time with the baby but that you don't want to impose on her time, you can work it out![/quote] This is really good. Thanks![/quote]
