[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I don't know where the PPs are getting the idea that you want to treat the grandparents like free babysitting. Sounds like you were a perfectly fine host - they came to visit the baby, not to be served and entertained by you; don't sweat it. You are being totally reasonable by not wanting to deal with traveling with your infant, when you are working and are dealing with all the exhaustion of a young infant. Let them come to you, and if these are your in-laws, get your husband to deal with them on this issue. DO NOT feel guilty about it at all! As your son gets older, it will be easier to travel up to see them, and no doubt you will be doing so plenty.[/quote] ITA with this. OP, I think you are being reasonable. I think it's weird that his parents are not making more of an effort to see their grandson. Two hours - come on, that's nothing. In this area, sometimes it takes two hours to travel 20 miles in traffic. Good luck.[/quote]
