[quote=Anonymous]I'm extremely independent (lots of international solo travel, never lived at home at all after age 18, etc.) yet close to my mom. I was very glad to have her come stay with me shortly after the birth. However, some things she does did drive me nuts (she is messy and I'm neurotically neat and was that was x100 with all the hormones). Even with that, I missed her when she was gone because my husband had to go back to work quickly and my recovery was not the easiest. Just physically, it was a huge help to have someone around who, quite frankly, would do absolutely anything for me (like wash bloody underwear, clean up my child's diaper explosion in the car seat, cook me food, etc.) The idea of having your mom nearby but NOT in your house for a couple months sounds amazing. I'm actually considering asking my parents to do that when our second is born. It's the best of all worlds.[/quote]
