[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am 3 weeks postpatrum, and my mom has been helping me out a lot taking care of my oldest child, newborn & me. She takes off work unpaid for 6 weeks to take care of anyone/cook/clean the house etc., so that I can recover & sleep well. [b]My DH is not that helpful[/b], and my MIL has not come to see the newborn yet even she lives local. Without my mom's help, it won't be the end of the world, but just I would spend $$ to order carry-out/delivery, and outsource some works for cleaning ladies.

I will do the same things when I have grandkids in the future if I would be still physical healthy, I would help to take care of my DD & DIL & grandkids as well. [/quote]

It's not being "helpful" to take care of your own family. It's being an adult.

I hope your children get a glimpse of the 21st century somewhere.[/quote]

+1. And I hope your children marry better partners who can adequately take leave and care for them after giving birth. That's what i want for my children. [/quote]
