Our daughter was born last May. I went into labor on my own and gave birth naturally on a Sunday. Dh, my mom, and SIL were with me in the delivery room. We went home on a Tuesday. 3 days later on Friday my husbands parents were coming for the weekend, they live about 8 hours away. I get a text from sil on Thursday that she wants to come with her husband and 2 kids since her parents will be coming to see us and the baby. They live 2 1/2 hours from me and DH. I just was not up for the extra company, I was very sore from a second degree tear, a hemroid, and sore nipples. SIL texts me but I never answer. She texts later saying they were just going to stay home since they got a new puppy to which I replied "ok, I just can't handle all the kids right now". This is when shit started hitting the fan. MIL then goes in on DH saying he needed to put me in my place cause sil is faaaamily and they just want to see everyone. Thankfully DH told her that it just wasn't good timing but maybe in a few weeks. What gets me is SIL never once mentioned comimg to stay with us when her parents came into town. Not only was she with me the day my lo was born she also came back into town the day we got discharged since her DS had a field trip. MIL said I was being selfish for not wanting the company and said I should have put my feelings aside so SIL and her dh and kids could have come to visit them. Oh I'm sorry I just gave birth and not up for lots of people in my space. I am civil with them now since its been a year but damage has been done that can't be fixed.
