Hmmm... I don't know. When my DS was born (my first child, my parents 3rd grandchild my inlaws 3rd grandchild) my MIL bought the changetable, my FIL bought the high chair, my mum bought heaps of stuff and my dad bought nothing. (Both lots of parents are separated).

Are they having a rough trot with money at the moment? Maybe that's why they didn't send much?

I didn't even expect my dad to give a present (quite tight) although he did bring flowers when my DS was born. .

I feel a little the same with my MIL, she doesn't make an effort to see my DS and when we went to my SIL's house the other day MIL was holding her granddaughter a lot but didn't even nurse my DS which annoyed me a little.

Can't give too much advice really.
