[quote=Anonymous]It is great and important for you to put yourself first and take care of yourself. But there is a brand new person in the world that is fragile, helpless and cannot survive on its own. So people are understandably focused on it. Plus that baby is the center of your attention right now. You are watching over it, too. In that sense, they are joining and helping you. Also, you really are included in the concern. If you were in the process of building a house, they would ask, "How is the house going?" And that would be about you and your house. This is an opening to talk about you and your project. In the end, you want people to really care about and focus on your baby, because that means that it is most likely to be loved and thrive. This is also their chance to bond with the new baby, which means that they will help protect it and keep it safe. Hang in there, mom![/quote]
