So I’m being induced this Friday (if baby girl doesn’t come early) and I found out my twin sister who wanted to be in the delivery room with me and my husband caught a bad cold. So that obviously meant she wouldn’t be experiencing my birth (which sucked) but I found out my parents decided to expose themselves to her and her children yesterday. They watched her kids for hours so she could sleep. Normally, I wouldn’t care but did they not think about seeing me in the hospital or even after? Why would they risk getting sick right now being so close to my due date and Thanksgiving even?? Now my husband and I are not going over to see them tomorrow and I can’t have them coming to the hospital exposing others and my newborn with a cold or virus. Am I overreacting or are my parents ridiculous? I’m so upset with them right now.

Edit: So some of you ladies believe that my parents were being great grandparents by helping my sister out. And yes, they were. But of course, no one knows my story because, well no one on here knows my life. And that’s okay. My parents are good parents to my sister and great grandparents to my sisters boys. But unfortunately, they aren’t for me. They babysit my sisters boys five days a week and they will sometimes spend the night so she can have breaks. Then my sister will give her kids to her baby daddy every other weekend. Being a single parent is hard, I get it. But so is being a parent with a partner and never having breaks. I don’t remember the last time they watched my son for us to give us rest or a break. And I know from experience when we are all sick, they don’t come to our rescue and help. They actually avoid us. And if wanting my parents to be there at the hospital after birth to see and hold my baby girl is overreacting, I guess I’ll accept that. They couldn’t hold or see my son until a month later because he was born March 2020 (peak of covid) so of course I didn’t want them to lose that bonding time with my daughter too.
