My parents drop by often to visit, but my in-laws expect us to visit them. In the past 6 months, they came to visit once after the hospital and waited until Elliot started rolling over to visit again. Most of these expectations were unspoken, and we were expected to know. </p> MegWag on "Do you visit your parents and in-laws with your LOs, or do they visit you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-visit-your-parents-and-in-laws-with-your-los-or-do-they-visit-you#post-4195 Thu, 13 Oct 2011 15:33:08 +0000 MegWag 4195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not sure how we'll handle this when the time come... We live in the UK and my family are all in the US (mostly Texas). I know when the baby first comes it's up to my parents to come visit. But after a few months I'd like to take the baby to meet Great-G'ma and Papa who can't fly. I'm less worried about travelling with a young baby (but not newborn) than with a toddler actually. </p> Andrea on "Do you visit your parents and in-laws with your LOs, or do they visit you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-visit-your-parents-and-in-laws-with-your-los-or-do-they-visit-you#post-4189 Thu, 13 Oct 2011 14:06:46 +0000 Andrea 4189@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have the same policy as you guys since my parents live in Hawaii. No way am I getting on that long flight with a toddler just yet. My MIL lives in Florida so we may go there soon since it is only a few hours away. </p> mrbee on "Do you visit your parents and in-laws with your LOs, or do they visit you?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-visit-your-parents-and-in-laws-with-your-los-or-do-they-visit-you#post-4187 Thu, 13 Oct 2011 14:04:14 +0000 mrbee 4187@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There's just no way we can visit the in-laws with any frequency. I think Charlie has visited his LA grandma once in his life. He's never trekked out to the Philippines, which is where my parents happen to live.</p> <p>Now that we have baby #2, we're not really traveling at all. If our parents want to see Charlie and Olive, they're gonna have to get on a plane! We're too chicken to travel until the kids are a bit older.</p> <p>Do you visit your in-laws? Or are you like us, and your grandparents come to visit you? </p>
