[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just keep your plan the way it is. You’ll be able to spend a wonderful holiday with your extended family without having to accommodate a baby’s needs and schedule. Your wife can relax at home with the baby and celebrate Christmas with her family. You can Skype every day. [/quote]

+1 and I am DW.
I would totally prefer to spend Christmas with my baby and parents rather than traveling abroad with 1 y.o. to see ILs or staying home with unhappy DH.
Have to add that we are atheists and Christmas is just another holiday.

Yeah...  and if I convince her to go, and we get stuck in an airport after cancelled/delayed flights.. she will be blaming me for making her change her mind.

I might just try to have our first Christmas together as a family before I go and try to have a positive attitude about not having to worry about a baby for a week ...

I do feel some resentment toward her though for skipping this reunion. We see her family for literally every holiday.....[/quote]

This is where I don’t like your attitude OP.
Either stay home with her or keep plans as they are. Our infants would get an ear infection or cold every time we traveled at such a young age. And as cute as your family finds the baby no one is going to help your wife out unless I’m mistaken and you will be helping with your baby? 
This sounds like a Kennedy clan story. How many are still married to first wives?[/quote]
