[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a strange dynamic to me. You just had a son. So you will one day be the MIL excited to meet her grandchild. I am frankly surprised they have waited almost 3 weeks. I do think asking them to stay in a hotel is reasonable, but if you have room why not have them stay with you and have your husband be in charge of hosting duties? I have 4 children and my out of town in-laws met each of them within a few days of birth. I was grateful to have an extended family who embraced my children/their grandchildren. I think this is just part of the deal and all this boundary talk is why people have such difficult relationships with their in-laws. They are family. Their visit doesn't have to be perfect, but let them in. It truly takes a village.[/quote] +1 this thread is sad to me. My out of town in-laws (and my own parents/siblings) came within days of all my kids’ births to stay with us. I’m surprised MIL isn’t disappointed she had to wait 3 weeks. Newborns change so much in the first month. [/quote] You sound like a nightmare.[/quote]
