[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why would you have anyone stay with you for a week after childbirth? That's crazy[/quote] +1. I had to have my MIL come stay with us to watch our oldest when I went into the hospital to have baby 2 but I sent her right home when we got back from the hospital. My own mother had serious health issues at the time and wasn't available. I didn't want her around as I was dealing with the usual postpartum stuff. I could have cared less if the house needed cleaning for a short while. We let some things go and eased back into it. I'm not comfortable with her in my space and I didn't want her fawning over me or doing housework that would have been weird. Dishes and laundry weren't worth it.[/quote]
