Does anyone speak french?

I have this so far:
Avec deux petits et un bébé, si vous n'êtes pas attendus pour visiter, ne vous attendez pas d'entrer!
that I want to hang on my front door.
I live in an old age home, so there is a lot of traffic of old people... already I have some that stop by all the time just to see how I am doing... and although that's kinda sweet, I don't want people to come and bother us once the new baby is here.
Is that selfish?

NO You are in no way being selfish I never wanted people around when i came home you need your space.

but I think you have the right to protect your baby, and if that mean no unexpected visitors then so be it and if they dont like it well its there problem
Nathansmom replied: I speak french, and I think it sounds perfect, not selfish at all!!
Hillbilly Housewife replied: Thanks... I needed validation I think before I put it up.
(for those of you who don't understand it, it means:
With 2 small kids and a baby, if we're not expecting you, don't expect to come in.
)

CantWait replied: Not selfish at all. You're going to be a very busy and tired mommy when the new baby comes.
