When to wait for people to meet baby?

I’m pregnant with my second child and want to limit the amount of contact for my child for a little bit especially while I’m recovering from my c-section. I was planning on allowing my mother & father in law as well as sister in law to come see the baby in the beginning since they provide the most support/help. With my family they live out of state so I don’t have to worry about them. I’m nervous about making other people made like my husbands grandma. I plan to make my friends wait maybe a month before meeting her just to give her immune system a little bit of a chance. Do you think making people wait a month is too long? I really want to be mentally ready and not drained when dealing with others.

2 months for everyone who will not be staying at your place. Otherwise you’ll feel you have to pay attention to them or they might want to be there for too long per day, without giving you the opportunity to be in bed WHERE YOU SHOULD BE recovering with your baby and getting in sync with their feeding cues.

This is for out of town people

It's up 2 you but if you want people to wait. They will wait x

Yeah. Remember that it’s not so much “when can x meet my baby” but “when should my baby meet x”

You are the momma and you are in charge. You carried this baby and brought it into the world, and both you and the baby's health is top priority- including emotional and mental. 2 months is nothing for others to wait.
