[quote=Anonymous]This is why I refused to let my in laws stay with us after our babies were born. In my family's culture, anyone who stays with the new family immediately after a child is born is responsible for taking care of the new parents so that they can take care of their baby. It's like American women forget that someone needs to take care of the new mom whose body has just been through a lot of trauma and needs time to heal. We need to change this about our culture. My mom stayed with us for a month and took care of ME and helped with the baby by, for example, bringing me the baby to feed when she cried. I hope that I can do this for my daughters.[/quote]
