My grandmother is really pissing me off. She has bronchitis and still wants to come visit LO. She nearly came while he was in NICU, but my mom lied to her about visitors allowed.

Now that he's home, she is planning to have her ex-husband drive her the four hours to my house because she doesn't feel well enough to drive.

My son was a late-term premature infant. He especially does not need sick visitors, though no newborn does! Our discharge information specifically said to limit visitors until his due date, which is still two and a half weeks away.

My mom (it's her batshit crazy mother) has tried to explain several times that LO cannot have visitors, especially not sick ones but she keeps saying that it's her great grandchild and she'll visit if she damn well pleases.

I haven't spoken to her and I hope to God she doesn't just show up on my front porch. I wouldn't let her in. I don't care if she thinks I'm a bitch, our pediatrician strongly reiterated everything the neonatologist said as part of discharge and said that if LO got sick in the first two months, it was an automatic two night stay in the regional children's hospital with full work-up, including spinal tap. I'm not risking that.

Sorry, just a long vent.
