infant scared of grandparents

My 5m+ LO is terrified of grandparents :( will literally cry bloody murder when we visit them. We are currently staying with my in laws but she is okay with them, once a week we will visit my parents side but she keeps crying. Any tips to introduce her to strangers/unfamiliar people:(

After CB my baby 7 mo also cry when my parents want to carry him. Very sad coz he used to see them every weekend and loves to be carried by them. In fact he used to be ok with anyone carrying him. But now 3rd time visit my parents he is ok already, I think he remembers them after afew times. Give your child a choice. Hold on to him and carry him when u visit them so he feels secure. Ask ur parents to hold out their hands to him, if he reach out to them then pass him over. If not then ask them to hang around but give him some space slowly get use to them.
