[quote=Anonymous]OP doesn’t have to have handled it perfectly in order for the MIL to be wrong. OP can and probably should apologize to the uncle for losing her cool. The “right” thing would have been to calmly explain that you were unprepared for visitors, not ready to receive them, look forward to welcoming them later and will be upstairs with the baby while they visit with the MIL downstairs. Could you pull that off five days post partum? I couldn’t! I couldn’t even sit down gracefully. OP’s “infraction” is very minor compared to the MIL’s and while she’s responsible for her behavior, MIL put her in a very tough spot. She should apologize, but if they uncle is reasonably he will be very understanding. [/quote]
