"After the baby" advice - 03/05/06 07:25 PM
Hi,
Not sure if this is the right place,so Mods please feel free to move.
Since my SD has had the baby about a month ago, I've felt "removed" and not much in common with her. We've had a great relationship for the past 10 years, but since she is a new Mom, I have no input to offer.
So, a friend suggested that I encourage her on "woman, after the baby" stuff,but I have no clue as to what needs to be done,thought about or said.
May I ask all mothers out there what they would suggest to a new mother, OTHER than baby info and advice, what things to do/say/be as a WOMAN and WIFE, outside of being a mother.
I will covet all replies and comple them in a list/note to her. I will also send her a new recipe.
Thanks!
