[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My in-laws are far easier than yours and I had a mini-breakdown when they stayed with us, in our much larger 2-bedroom, when our kid was about the age of your kid.

If your in-laws have the means, I would have no guilt telling them "Look, we love you guys, but we've tried this a few ways and we need a less crowded apartment in the evenings for us and the baby needs this too. You can come every morning when you wake up, and you can stay into the evening, we want you to feel welcome because you are."

Or if they are of limited means too and you are not, offer to pay for a hotel or just book it. You may also consider booking a hotel for your mom to ease the competitive feelings if that helps. [/quote]

OP here. Thanks for all of the suggestions. I hear you about the mini-breakdown! That's one thing that concerns me. I'm starting to wean, and my hormones seem to be going haywire because of it - we actually stopped the weaning process and will try again when our lives calm down a bit. I'm worried that I'm already a bit on edge. Took zoloft pre-pregnancy, haven't been on it since DS was conceived, so it takes me a lot of energy to hold myself together sometimes. [/quote]
