Do I need a reality check?

I'm sure that it wasn't intentional that you weren't called. Remember what it was like to come home with a new baby.....all the stuff that you had to take care of......and how tired you were? Don't be offended. Be happy that the baby is finally home and everyone is doing well! Give the new Mom at least 2-3 weeks to become comfortable with being a new mom and to heal then go for a visit. A new grandchild....Congratulations!!!!!!!!

Let your DIL know that you're being considerate of how she's feeling. She'll really appreciate that you're concerned for her well being. It's always good to stay on the good side of your DIL!!!!!!!

My daughter's MIL came to visit as soon as she heard about her first new granddaughter. My daughter felt like she hardly got to care for the baby and was bossed around by her MIL. She was very upset.
