[quote=Anonymous]NP. Haven't read all the replies, but I think you should tell your in-laws that it's a great opportunity for them to spend a lot of time with DD and get to know her, but that she will be staying in daycare for sure and ideally sleeping in your house (i.e. her usual bed). Say that you asked them first because you thought they'd jump at the opportunity, but if it doesn't work for them then you completely understand and it's no big problem at all for you to get a sitter to stay with her. But honestly I think your DH was crazy to ask them. When parents aren't away, kids need someone who will adhere religiously to their usual schedule, not walk all over it. I can imagine some frantic phone calls... Personally I'd probably just say that it clearly doesn't work well for them to fit in with her schedule and that you're arranging alternative care for her.[/quote]
