[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, who is opening the door to them when they show up at your house? That person needs to stop.

Your baby is YOURS.  Not community property. [/quote]

The baby is a sentient human being who has a family that includes her grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc.

How many days per week is this-- 2?  I'd have your husband arrange for them to go home by a certain time so you can do bedtime routine.  Come home later those days, so you can say bye as they leave.  Husband can be in charge of getting them out the door.  Have dinner with a girlfriend, run some errands, get some work done.  They are unlikely to keep this up forever-- especially unmarried SIL.

FWIW, You and your husband are certainly within your rights to explain that you are a private person and that they need to stay away.   You are going to end up seeming unreasonable.  I do think it is strange that you are upset by having them there when you are at work.  They are not going to understand this either.  Good luck, I hope you can find a compromise with them.  It sounds like they really love their grandchild.  Mine are older now, and I can really see the fruits of a close relationship with grandparents and extended family.  It is a sacrifice for you, but one that you may find worth it later.[/quote]
