[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Excuse me, rude PP! Did you not read my post yesterday at 20:53? Since you clearly aren't reading the entire thread, I will copy and paste it for you here. Read the entire thread before you post your judgy/snarky responses. -OP

[b]Thank you for all the opinions. I'm really not controlling. I actually just feel bad putting hospitality-related chores on DH. He works really hard and takes on a lot of responsibility. He's very capable and that's not what I was implying. I enjoy being a good host and it bothers me that in-laws won't be using the guest room. Yes, I can get over it but it seems like it's within my rights to refuse making them alternative arrangements. -OP [/b][/quote]

You may not be controlling of your husband, but I think you're being a little controlling of your in-laws. If it were an issue of time and effort as you're approaching your delivery date, I would be sympathetic (as I think most posters here have been).

But you just really REALLY want them to use your guest room. I'm sure you've spent time on it, and it's probably lovely -- but they've made it clear that they would prefer more privacy and/or more distance from a crying infant at night. To me part of being a good host is putting your guests' comfort above your pride in your decorating skills.
