Am I being dramatic?

So my partners family live just over an hour away and have on numerous occasions asked my partner to bring him over on the train, which I've said no to. Firstly, I'm not comfortable with him going all that way without me as hes been with me 24/7 since being in the womb! And secondly I just feel like if they want to see him they should come to us, seeing as he's so young, why should he have to travel so far? Also, if I was to go with them that'd mean I have to drive, and I think I shouldn't feel like I have to considering that I had a c-section. Am I being selfish or unreasonable?

Show your support

They should absolutely be coming to you if they want to see him, unless they’re very old and have mobility issues,

Can you not all go on the train? Then you won't have to drive.

Definitely tell them to come to you if they want to see your baby

Unless there’s a valid reason they can’t travel, they should 100% come to you!

How old is your baby? I also had a C-section so completely understand. My family flown over to meet my boy so they have no excuse

Depending on how long ago you had the c section, you should not be driving as it invalidates the insurance. I would be careful not too start driving too soon. Also, c section is major abdo surgery, you should be recovering as well as looking after baby and settling into your routine with baby. You are not being dramatic or selfish by saying no to going on train to visit his family.

How old is baby? As I feel this is super relevant!

Defo not being dramatic!! I see it as, i would NEVER expect someone to come to me after just having a baby/recovering from a baby i’d go to them! So why should you have to go to them too?
