Pil are planning a trip to see us this summer and I have suggested 5 nights as opposed to the week they have been hinting at.
Reasons for being is that I will be 36 weeks pregnant and on mat leave, DH will be at work and tends to avoid his parents, PIL help with dd but I will still need to do meal planning and shppping, cooking etc. And... PIL are very intense and overbearing and although they mean well, 5 nights is about my limit.
Feel a bit bad because they haven't seen much of dd this year - just for a weekend in March and a weekend in May. They will be back for a short stay once dc2 arrives and then probably for a long weekend in October before we get together for xmas. They live a 7 hour drive away so it's hard to see them that regularly.
Am I being mean or reasonable?! DH agrees with me but I'm expecting mil to be on the phone with counter plans and wonder how much I should stand my ground...
