[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It depends how helpful they are. If your mom will sit on the couch and offer to "hold the baby" while you do all the cooking, cleaning and running her errands then no it won't be helpful. If she will cook, clean and tell you to go shower, go nap, etc., then yes it will be helpful. [/quote] This! It’s wonderful to have help, but only if the helpers are actually helpful. If they expect to be entertained, are only there to "hold the baby" and will actually add more work to your plate, they can absolutely stay home. No one needs the stress of hosting a visitor for a month right after having a baby.[/quote] Be careful not to treat your family like your servant.[/quote]
