[quote=Anonymous]Do it! I didn't have any family around to help and did not hire a night nanny or a PT nanny with my first. I got through it (husband worked long hours in a demanding job and couldn't help during the day or much at night), but it was a dark time. Not sure if I had PPD, but I definitely felt a lot of resentment. If you can afford to hire help and if you don't have family in the area or family that can help or family that you want to help then hire help. You will be particularly grateful for the help if you end up getting a c-section, your baby has reflux, etc. If someone judges you then that's on them. Not everyone wants to have the same postpartum experience and not everyone thrives or does well in the same situation. [/quote]
