[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would let her come and help with the realization that she isn't really coming to help YOU, she is coming to help with the baby. And that will ultimately wind up being helpful to you. Don't over think it. It can be a godsend to have someone just hold the baby while you get a slow moving sitz bath or shower. Seriously.[/quote] OP here - it isn't a question of her coming or not, but of where she stays. And the earlier help examples I gave were from when she came to help with my second child. She really doesn't help much with the baby. Doesn't change diapers, etc. so I know what I'm getting there already.[/quote] She asks what she can do to help - tell her to read to the toddler or hold the baby or build legos with your big kid...or tell her to vacuum the living room, heat up this frozen casserole... If you start thinking now of the things you could have her do you might find that she really is very helpful.[/quote]
