[quote=Anonymous]Your husband needs to step up. I knew ahead of time what I wanted my boundaries to be, we discussed/fought about them and figured them out pre baby and as things came up. You are going to have to compromise as to not scree yourself over later for when you are ready to need them. Once you set boundaries they should get used to them eventually. To help, some of my compromises were: 1. Allowing them to see the baby in the hospital in another room with my husband but barring them from my room. 2. Saying no to a time they wanted to visit that was bad for me but making time to see them the following day Make your husband be the bad guy and communicate with them about your (his and yours) collective wishes. Also, try FaceTimeing with them daily for a few minutes to see the baby. It goes a long way. [/quote]
