So my sister in law informs me that when the baby arrives she doesnt want ANY friends or family at the hospital or at home until she says otherwise. This really upsets me. I get her reasoning to an extent, but did she not think it would upset a few people along the way? Friends not allowed coming for awhile is totally understandable, but FAMILY? REALLY? I am not allowed to meet/see my niece until she is three weeks or so old? I am only upset that I wont be able to meet my niece. I understand her reasoning, but having family around her isnt going to harm her or the baby. FIFTEEN MINUTES is all I asked. Well I dont want kids around her either since she isnt vaccinated UH HELLO If anything its MY kid at risk since my kid IS vaccinated. I asked her Okay, so what if your brother was here, would he be allowed to see his niece? She said No. I said Okay, so once we have our baby, you wont be upset that I wouldnt want anyone around She said No. WTFever, yeah you would. Having a baby is a special and wonderful thing. Not only is she her daughter, but its someones granddaughter, niece, cousin, etc. We want to meet her and join in on the special first days. babies change a TON in that first month. Why would you deny your family witnessing that?
She stormed out upset at our disagreement. Now I have this feeling that all my in-laws are going to dislike that I disagree with this decision. I am allowed to have an opinion as she is as well.
