My parents live in the same town as us and my husband's parents live abroad (and don't speak the same language as me). We are due our first baby and I'm not sure I want my husband's parents to come and stay with us when the baby is first born. I raised this with my husband before we fell pregnant and his argument was that it's not really fair for us to allow my parents to visit in the very early days but not his. I just want to adjust to being a mum but also have my own mum for support if I want it. Of course I will want my parents to meet the baby straight away as we are have a very close relationship and live close to each other. I don't want to stop his parents from visiting and my husband miss out on the same, but I don't feel comfortable having them stay and be on top of us when we're adjusting and bonding. I also don't want his parents to have negative feelings towards me for denying them of what I'm allowing my parents to do, or even asking them to stay in a hotel feels wrong. Any suggestions on how to navigate this? Also.. it's my first child and my parents first grandchild but my husband's second child.
