Need help with this situation please

My grandmother is bad and we are all taking turns staying with her at night since nurses or sitters stay during the day. She can't stay by herself anymore. I am staying 1 day out of the week but I am 5 months pregnant and am not leaving my newborn son when he gets here all night to stay down there. My husband would be with him but still doesn't feel right Leaving him without his mother all night in my opinion and am not doing that .They were already Mad at me and talking about not having anything to do with me recently because i wasnt going to stay considering I'm pregnant and didn't want to be stressed out. I know when I tell my family that they are going to not be too happy probably but I will have my son to think about. Just needing some info on what I can do to try and not make them to unhappy and have them see my side of the situation. Any suggestions is very much appreciated.

If she can't stay by herself, she should be moved into a home (if affordable) and if not, they should get a nurse at night too. While I am all for family helping each other out, it's not an obligation.

Since your only there ond day a week it shouldn't be that hard to find a replacement. Maybe you can offer to watch her one day a week & I'm sure she would enjoy having a baby around once lo is born

Totaally agree with this.

I would just stay with the baby if it was me.

When I was staying overnight/spending lots of time at the hospital and then nursing home with my great grandmother, my husband was with the kids at home.

Part of me was tired. Sitting there, just watching her, while she didn't interact 80% of the time was boring and exhausting, but I didn't want to miss out on the 20% of the time that she could talk to me.

For me, I didn't spend as much time with my grandmother while she was dying as I should have because I was pregnant and tired and dealing with the dx of autism with my older son. I really regret not being with her now, and it's part of the reason I made sure with my great granny that I got in all the time I could.

Why can't you take the baby with you?
