My baby is 4.5 months old. At this point my husband's parents have yet to meet him. They say logistics is the issue because we live 4.5 hours away and we asked that they take a covid test the day before coming. Now, the drive could be a justified reason but they have visited his sister twice since he was born and she lives 3.5 hours from them. Maybe longer in travel time because she lives outside dc and that traffic is way worse than what you would get driving to us.

His sister wrote us off when he was born because she wanted the first baby in the family and was very bitter when we had our son (a different story for a different time).

I find it ridiculous that they will drive an hour less to visit her but refuse to come here. They expect us to bring the baby to them and with 2 dogs and covid that sounds like a nightmare of a drive with a baby, a puppy and my other dog.

Would you be offended? They offered to come once but when we asked they take the test and wait for results they thought it was absurd id expect them to stay home for 24 hours.

My mother even offered to drive them (and stay at hotel so they had their own time with him) since they are in the same area but they didn't want to take the test. They have tried guilt tripping my husband saying we love my family more and that he doesnt love them anymore. Which infuriates me to make him feel bad because they are either lazy, selfish, or just don't care to meet their grandchild because their other child is mad.
