I think this is a function of everyone looking for a reason to be mad and have their feelings hurt now. That sounds like a pretty imbalanced thing to say. Maybe it's the hormones?

I don't understand why she's upset. My parents are planning to come up when this one is born for a couple weeks, then they're going on vacation like a week after that. My concern was them over exerting themselves prior to their vacation.

Yeah...no. That's nothing but ducking entitlement. You don't get to dictate someone's vacation for shoving out a crotch gremlin. Like I said I just don't get that

Some people just look for things to bitch about. That woman is probably wishing she could go on a vacation.

I've never understood needing help with a baby.
Same. Multiples I guess I could understand, that's a handful. A regular birth and singleton though? Not really. I had a friend try to schedule her own meal train and mothers help for the weeks following the birth of her second. No one signed up.
Why did she think she needed a meal train and what exactly was she wanting help with? What did she say when no one signed up
Apparently it's "helpful" to provide the new parents with meals so they can relax after having the baby and not worry about cooking, help was with cleaning, her 3 year and babysitting so she could rest properly. She was REALLY pissed off when no one signed up, and even more pissed off when many didn't go to the baby shower, because it was at noon on a weekday. A lot of us worked. She was definitely entitled and cut a lot of us out of her life over it.

Why in the hell should her due date have anything to do with someone elses vacation plans? It doesnt mean anything. It doesnt mean you arwnt important to them or they dont care about you. It means they went on vacation.

I dont understand the entitlement of people today.
In laws often can't win if they go on vacation a few weeks later they don't care but I bet if the in laws came around to help out she would be complaining they were smothering her and the baby.
I’ve never seen so many nasty , picky and harsh women as here ( and at the old CM)
They find reasons to bash In-laws and parents and seem threatened by them.
They just don’t know how to care about people other than themselves.

Woah,woah....I haven't seen many people bash their in laws. I have seen moms set boundaries and there is nothing wrong with that..Call before coming over.no visitors at the hospital,vaccinations up to date...Those I have seen,no sleeping at your home, nuclear family only at Christmas? Nothing wrong with any of those boundaries. But hitching because your in laws are going vacation around your due date is just too much.

Me neither...unless you've just delivered triplets or had a rough delivery.

But that would never happen in my case because I wouldn't be asking for help. I loved being left alone in the days immediately following the births of my kids.
