[quote=Anonymous]Do NOT give in, especially on the hotel. My ILs came a week after DS was born and stayed with friends and they still drive me crazy by being around so much. It sounds like they are not the helpful type, you definitely do not want people in your house in the middle of the night while you wander around topless looking for your clean nursing tanks because the baby just puked on you. Also, tell them they can come at X o'clock, not whenever they feel like it. Maybe 9 or 10am or whatever, so you have a little time to get yourself together. Remind them this is just for this visit, when they come later they can stay over. I love having the grandparents stay over now and get up early with my now toddler while I sleep in a little bit.

My parents came first and then my ILs, and I wish I had everyone all at once. I really wanted to spend time bonding with just our little 3 person family before my DH went back to work. Get all the drama out of the way first and then you can relax.[/quote]
