Greetings, again...

When teaching new parents, I remind them that the first few weeks of a
baby's life is his/her "honeymoon" with his/her parents.  I suggest they
think of who they'd have liked to have had with them on their honeymoon,
and consider having those people around.  All of the support persons
involved in the postpartum period can act as helpers... preparing food,
cleaning, doing laundry (like the staff who served them on their
honeymoon). Dads seem especially thoughtful after hearing this. :)
