Hi
I am new to being a grandma. I have worked hard to be a good MIL but I still don’t feel welcomed by my DIL. She rarely even says hello to me when I go to see her, my son, and my grandson. My question is, how often should I visit. I feel like she really wants her space and that I shouldn’t go over, even though she tells me to come anytime. My gut tells me to stay away until they come and see me so that I don’t overwhelm my DIL. That that will be my sign that they are ready for visitors. But I don’t want my son or my DIL to feel neglected. My grandsons is two months old and it was a very traumatic birth experience for my son and DIL.
I can’t ask my DIL because the answer I always get is, “everything is fine”. But no eye contact, and no hello when I go over. I go over about once every other week.
Thank you!
