[quote=Anonymous]OP, congrats on your new baby. Being a FTM is stressful and doing it in the midst of a global pandemic certainly makes it worse. I think that your options are: (a) stay home and enforce your no-kissing rules or (b) exhale and let it go. My kids are older now, but the first time I dropped them off to spend a couple of weeks with their grandparents, I had a long list of rules/schedule/etc. My mom looked at me and said: The only thing that I promise you is that they will be alive when you come back to get them. And you know what? It all worked out. I am sure they watched a lot of television and ate a lot of sweets, but they had a great bonding time with their grandparents. That latter is the most important thing that cannot be replace with anything else in the world. Remember to breathe and enjoy your baby and your time with your parents/in-laws. I hope you choose to go. [/quote]
