[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP, I think your mom coming after the two weeks or so sounds great. I love my mom, we're very close and she is the type to be really helpful and not at all an imposition, but I really valued having the first couple weeks for me and DH to be with the baby without anyone else. My parents live in DC so they met the baby in the hospital, but I don't think they visited for until we had been back for for home for at least a week and a half, and even they they just dropped off some dinner and groceries, cooed over the baby, and took off. My DH also took four weeks off so that really helped. It sounds like your mom subletting a nearby place on her own means that she really does want to be helpful and not a burden to you, and that she will be here when you want her to be, and give you space when you(and she probably!) need it.[/quote]
