[quote=Anonymous]I think the email is a bit much. That said, I think there is a widespread (and unreasonable) expectation that new moms will be up and at em in no time, barring anything life-threatening. This thread shows how little compassion we have for ourselves and others. Women really do need - and deserve - time to heal, rest, recover, bond with their baby, get the hang of feeding etc. The problem is not her email, the problem is that OP (and others) approach the situation from a perspective of "suck it up" rather than "how can I help?" Selfish, short-sighted, nasty behavior reigns again.[/quote]
