[quote=Anonymous]Something to consider: my wise mom (of six) always told me that she'd prefer to visit for hands on help weeks after the baby is born when she was really needed. She believed and encouraged me to have as few visitors as possible, rest when the baby sleeps, just kind of bond/wing it together as a family. That's busy and stressful enough, without also having guests at your house. Maybe compromise and have ILs visit to see the newborn, nothing else. Maybe ask them to take older sibling out so you and DH can have some time. Give them specifics. Then, have DH explain that they can come for a longer visit later. Decide when later is and where ILs can stay. Again, specifics. [/quote]
