In laws - Not allowing to visit baby immediately once born

I will be giving birth this month (July 2022) and im gg to be a FTM. I am an introvert and im not very good at adapting to change and esp becoming a new mom so i think i will need time to adjust and just find myself, collect my emotions & thoughts etc. What do you guys think about me not allowing MIL to immediately come and visit me & baby? Is it wrong? I have an ok-ok rs with her. (she has only been nicer to me bcs im pregnant, we didnt rlly have a good past). Am i being selfish or evil? This will be her first grandchild btw. My parents think that its not right. #firstbaby #pleasehelp

Just do whatever you think it’s right for your sanity. After giving birth, physical and mental health are the most important. And you need some time to adjust to your new life being a mom. I did told my parents that no visitors (including my in laws) during my confinement for the first 2 weeks as I’ll be giving birth during next CNY period. Yes, my rs with my in laws are bad, they never concern about my pregnancy, baby and health. So I don’t give them face as well.
