[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dad’s only in town that one day?? I’d have him come over at 10 or 11 for coffee/bagels, then mom later that day for dinner at 4. If dad complains, too bad. Tell him you are not making yourself miserable when you just had a baby - presumably he knows the deal and he & your mom have not been in a room in a while. [/quote] THIS^^^ If he's in town for more than 1 day, you have Thursday with Mom and another day with dad. You have a newborn, so don't over extend yourself. You also know neither parent wants to be around the other, so do not put them in that position. You will have plenty of those times to come---ES plays/events, sports/music/school activities your kid(s) are in, graduations, religious event for the kids---those are all one-time events that they need to learn to grow up and be in the same room. But holidays, nope, you can celebrate separately on different days ideally[/quote]
