[quote=Anonymous]Absolutely, I am Indian and it is customary for the mother to have a month of doing absolutely nothing outside of caring for the baby and herself after the baby is born. My mom came and cooked for us, helped around the house, helped with the baby at night, and all around pampered me (and with my second child, helped with my first). It was amazing. If you don't have a caring mom, then don't do it, but in my culture, this is grandma's job. The new mother shouldn't have to lift a finger.[/quote]
