[quote=Anonymous]I'm from a colder back ground too. My inlaws sound like yours. The best thing to do is talk to your husband and tell him your fears and that you may need some space. You can also use some of this to your advantage. (they should like great babysitters!!!) On rule that I would have DH lay down right now is there are to be NO surprise visits to your house EVER! Read some books on setting healthy boundaries. When they come to visit in the beginning let them watch DC and you can sleep, take a bath, sleep. When you need to nurse (if thats what you choose) take the baby go to your room, lock the door, when your done return baby and go back to your room. After time everyone will know what work for each other. When my IL come to visit, I take off and do what I normally can't do with kids in tow and they LOVE the time alone with the grand kids. win-win[/quote]
