[quote=Anonymous]Explain to your DH that your home is your sanctuary and that he few hours between work and baby's bedtime are the most precious hours of your day--you shouldn't have to share either. Then be ready with some compromises. You don't want them in the house without you, because it feels invasive ("Oh don't be silly? You think they/we will steal something?!" Response: "It is my home, and I have a right to limit visitors if I feel like it.") but you are willing to come visit them at their house every other weekend and they can meet up with nanny at X park every Tuesday from A-B and at Y library every Friday from C-D and you are willing to host a big family dinner one Sunday a month. Be very reasonable and accomodating and discuss it with DH in advance and be sure he is onboard. Then if they overreact and flip out, it is in response to something reasonable that DH previously agreed to.[/quote]
