[quote=Anonymous] The day I gave birth I was on my hands and knees scrubbing the kitchen floor because I thought it was dirty. DH laughed at me, and since this was my second pregnancy, I laughed too. Nothing was really dirty - I was just preparing for birth! Covid cases are exploding right now in DC area. There are far more cases than when DC, MD and VA went into stay-at-home mode mid-March. A slightly dirty home will not kill anyone, even an infant with no immunity. COVID-19 CAN KILL YOU. I strongly urge you NOT to have anyone come into your home. No cleaning lady, no family members, no friends. You can go through this period of birth and infancy just with your husband. I've done it twice. It's not a big deal. You just need to sit down with him and divide the chores, and assure each other that you will both roll with the punches. Your home can look like a bomb went off, but if the baby is safe, warm and fed, and you all get some sleep, it's FINE. Really. [/quote]
