[quote=Anonymous]I wanted company desperately but didn’t need any help. In fact, I think grandmas coming to help often means that husbands don’t step up or are pushed away from helping. It’s crucial to get your dh to help postpartum and to learn to care for babies. Also my friends with moms who came to stay for months didn’t go to the moms groups and had less social interaction. They were more isolated. My mom was so angry at dh for taking paternity leave. She also wanted to stay in the hospital with me since that’s what her mom had done for her. Dh was so very helpful and loved cooking and cleaning for us. [/quote]
