Trying to set family expectations and would love thoughts on 2 things. 1. How long after baby will I be ready for visitors beyond our parents? I’m thinking a few weeks. 2.

Can’t predict the future but family is already talking about trips and I want to set expectations and do what is best for baby. TIA!!
