Partner's sister and husband want to visit our new baby. They live 2h away but are travelling literally right past us to go on holiday and have to change train anyway so it's a 5min detour to visit. Depending on whether they visit on the outward or return journey it'd mean morning (ok but not ideal) or late evening (worst time of the day for us, constantly feeding, fussy, and lots of boob flashing while fussing which is not ideal in front of two people I don't know very well, we see them once a year.) So DP says we prefer the morning and his sister responds: actually we'll be tired from travelling and it doesn't suit us. So it's evening or nothing.
I had to laugh.
Visiting at the end of your holiday means you'll have been out the night before so you'll be sooo tired the following morning.
While I get a solid 8 hours a night of course. (Pregnancy and BF a newborn causing sleep deprivation? Old wives tales!)
Did I mention they are TTC?
Should I suggest they come round at 4am, we're all up anyway! It'd show them what they're in for!
