Visiting in laws

Hi working moms, how often do you bring your baby to visit your in laws? I feel that weekends is time for us to rest and bond with baby, yet we are obliged to visit in laws because they cannot be bothered to visit. I do not enjoy time at in laws because I do not like the way my SIL and MIL interact with my baby, yet I cannot tell them straight off in the face.

I’m staying with my in laws. But I bring baby out to my parents every week. Unless I have to work. I have no issues with my parents or my sister interacting with my baby. But I understand sometimes it’s just tiring and u just want to stay home during the weekend. It’s tiring for me too! But I feel bad that my parents don’t get to spend so much time with baby since we’re not living with them

Only when we feel like it, or when they nag. Same reason as you why we hold out visits. Plus my husband also not very keen to visit them with our baby as their home isn’t very clean and has a good amount of hoarding.

We go weekends but not every weekend. This is to ensure we have plenty of family times too which we prioritise over extended family. Why not discuss this with the husband? Come up with a comprimise.

It’s a weekly affair for me. Every Saturday for the whole day. 😅

Can you elaborate more on how they interact with your baby?
