Am I being selfish? Little long

A bunch of family is coming from another country shortly before my due date.  Prior to getting pregnant, I was very excited for them all to come.  Now I am not sure if I will be up for it.  The plan was orginally for me and dh to take in 2 of the visitors (9 total) and have them stay with us.  Recently to help me, the plan has changed to where my sister and her 2 kids come to stay with us.  I reallly would prefer no one to be in the house then.  Is that selfish?  I mean it's not like the baby will have been born if things go as planned.  They are will be leaving 2 weeks before my due date and I feel like I want to enjoy the little time left with just me and DH, no one else.  I should just suck it up right?

    For family, I would. But you have to do what is right for you.... it's your choice.

    You're crazy for agreeing in the first place! Your sister probably wouldn't be so bad, but my DH and I have a very firm no overnight visitors rule even though we (until now!) had an extra bedroom. I'm pretty private and so not into guests.

    I think your sis should understand you not having guests when you're about to pop, especially children. Plus you never know if you'll go into labor early!

    It might make for a good distraction at the end when your getting anxious waiting
