[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have both stay in the hotel and MIL can come and help during the daytime hours.[/quote]

If I am paying for a hotel then you can pay for a maid.  [/quote]

Then “you” don’t actually want to help.

No.  I will help but only if I am at your house.  If you expect me to pay for a hotel but still schlep over to your house every day to cook, clean, wash your clothes. And listen to your whining, dream on because it ain't gonna happen.  As I said earlier. Hire a maid, a baby nurse, as well as a night nurse.[/quote]

OP, if this is your MIL’s attitude (which it doesn’t sound like it is), then absolutely do not let her come. People like this only want to help on their terms, as is convenient for them. You don’t want a person like that around you when you’re getting into the groove with a new baby.

I also have no idea why someone would be hellbent on staying in a house with a newborn instead of going to a nice hotel and getting sleep/relaxing time in, but that’s a different issue. [/quote]
