I'm so annoyed with my MIL! I just gave birth and it's now non stop visitors to my home! To the extent that I have to schedule 2 hours a day! My MIL insists that they must come to the home. Great but she doesn't do much to help me! She just tells them to Comr over to see baby n then I have to prepare etc. I'm very tired n need to rest! It's been only 4 days but if this continues, I'll be tired, losing hair n prob not going back to my recovery stage very soon. My MIL told me that I'm weak and need so much help. I'm so tired of her! How do I stop visitors!!!

Perhaps you can have your husband talk to his mother? He is in a better position to tell (or telll off) his mother for allowing all this hectic visitors even though you have just given birth. Also, perhaps you and your husband can tell your MIL that all the visitors coming in and out may not be good for baby's health. Since baby is sooo young, baby's immune system is not strong enough and all that people activity might cause baby to fall sick. You can also suggest a party of sorts for family members and friends after a few months -- for now, tell her you and baby (especially baby) need all the rest you can get.
