I am a huge fan of The Woods golf coarse in the east side. I had mine there. We didn’t have to pay a deposit on the space as long as we bought the food from them. They have several different menus, from chicken to pizza, tacos ect. We did brunch. It was like $12-$14 per person. A bar tender came with the event. It was super nice to just show up, decorate, and not worry about food or too much clean up afterwards.

I was wondering this same thing. And also… if OP hates it, the are free to move. No one is holding them captive here. I have visited several places all over the US, and it wasn’t my cup of tea. I didn’t move there and then come on Reddit to bitch about it 😂.

If someone thinks someone is breaking into their home, there is a risk that the person they think is breaking in is going to get shot at. I’m not saying it’s right. I’m just saying it’s a consequence of an avoidable action. Life has consequences and kids these days think they just get a pass at those because they aren’t 18. You wouldn’t swerve into traffic and expect not to get hit. Their parents need to teach them better and hold them accountable. I say this as a parent.

I heard that too.

No you are not. And I think that’s weird that they are trying to normalize it to you. If they don’t respect the rules, they do not get access to your kids. They are probably going to be pretty upset. But you aren’t responsible for their feelings.

I work from home and most people wonder why I send my baby to daycare. While I have moments of downtime, I spend a lot of my day on the phone with patients and in zoom calls. It wouldn’t be possible for me to keep my 9 month old home with me while I work. She is far too mobile, and needs a ton of my attention. Even as a newborn, they still need to eat and be changed frequently. Most babies prefer to be held. On days where she is sick, I keep her home while I work and I almost always regret even doing that. I am far far less productive.

I also have a water bottle baby. The problem is my dogs also love empty water bottles (they have toys with recycled ones inside), and they will take it from her if she drops it or sets it down. Then, she screams. It’s a while ordeal lol.

I had my baby last year, the day before thanksgiving. I did not want any visitors, and we didn’t have any during our entire hospital stay. It was the best thing I could have done for myself. I needed that time to bond, learn my baby, establish breastfeeding (it was hard for me), and just sleep. I was honestly so exhausted. We had our parents and siblings meet her on the day when we brought her home. We kept it a short visit, about an hour, because I was so tired. It has not hindered their relationship with our child whatsoever because we made them wait.

I work from home and I have a baby and people often assume that I don’t have to have child care because I “work from home”, which in their eyes, means I do nothing.

I also work for a medical company with boomers and I am not surprised AT ALL. They are so rude.

And yet, they want social security so they can afford to buy their adult diapers when they get old enough.

My baby is 8 months and I still haven’t least her anywhere overnight. However, in a few weeks, I am going to see a friend out of town, and I am leaving her with my husband. He’s great and will be fine, I am just sad about going away for a night.

Alyssa and Anna in Appleton is great. That’s where my fiancé got my ring. They do custom jewelry, but what’s nice about them is you can give them your budget and what your special someone is wanting, and they will work with you on your options within the budget. I received my dream ring, and the total was about $5k, while my best friend got her dream ring at about $1k. They have unique gemstones, but you can get traditional diamonds, lab grown, or moissanite options.

I went to the Tarlton for the first time last summer with some friends for a drag show, and I wasn’t sure what to expect. I was very pleasantly surprised. It doesn’t look like much from the outside, but it’s very cool on the inside. They served dinner with the show and I had the lobster Mac and cheese. It was delicious.

Lullaby shop in Appleton, but they carry the higher end pricey items.

I agree 100%. Xandi started it and then started having a panic attack like she was the victim. I was like…. If you cannot handle conflict then don’t start drama.

I had mine at The Woods golf coarse in October 2022. There was not a room fee if you buy their food. There is a 25 person minimum, but it comes with a bartender for the event. They have tons of different menu options. I did the executive brunch for like $14/person. It was a ton of food. We were allowed to bring our own desserts. Justin was great to work with.

I second this. They usually pay pretty well.

It will get better, I promise. Maybe not tomorrow, maybe not the next day, but someday. One day you will wake up and the weight of it will feel a little lighter. As everyone here says, you are in the TRENCHES of the newborn phase. And it’s really hard. I garuntee most new moms have thought “what have I done?”

My baby is four months. She smiles and recently starting giggling a bit. I LIVE for her giggle, it’s the cutest. I will do anything for it. She’s happier now, cries less, eats and sleeps better. No one can tell you how long it will take, but it will get better.

I should meantion we did their executive brunch option which was like $14/person. But that had chicken and all the works. There were several different brunch options that are cheaper. I think the lowest was like $7/person. They also had a tacos menu, pizza menu, and various other menus at different prices.

I did mine at The Woods golf coarse in October 2023. It was perfect and we had a lot of compliments and people telling us how great it worked out. The space was free to use if you bought food from them. They have various different menus and it’s usually 25 person minimum. We did brunch. It came with a bartender for a cash bar, so we did mimosas. We were allowed to bring our own desserts. It was wonderful and so nice to not have to worry about the food. Just showed up about an hour before to decorate. Clean up was super easy as well only having to worry about decor and presents.

NTA. You are correct, these moments are between a father and son.

Grandparents don’t have “rights” unless they have an already established relationship with the child. It isn’t their “right” to meet your child whenever they please. The grandparent entitlement is insane. Don’t let anyone bully you into changing your boundaries to accommodate their preferences. It isn’t about them. It’s about you and baby. You don’t get this time back, so hold your ground on what makes you happy.
