[quote=Anonymous]I had a c section, a preemie baby that didn’t sleep and a husband that didn’t take a single day off work. My mom — who is a total worker bee — was so helpful. She did all the cooking and cleaning and even washed all my curtains and the clothes that the baby hadn’t yet grown into. I woke her every morning at 5 to hand her the baby so I could do sleep for a couple of hours. She left after a month and o almost threw myself out of a wkndow, largely because I had gotten bronchitis or something. But I think most people are really turning a corner after 2-4 weeks, depending a large amount on whether you had an easy delivery and whether your baby sleeps and eats. A baby that doesn’t sleep or eat well is so, so much more tiring. My next two babies ate and slept and it was like a totally different experience. [/quote]
