Do you know if she will follow Korean postnatal traditions?<br /><br />My mum flew in from Malaysia and helped me with Chinese 'confinement' tradition after all my 3 children were born. For a month or so, the new mum would be urged to rest, eat a special nourishing confinement diet, and stay warm/keep out of catching a cold! When I had my 2nd and 3rd, Mum looked after the older children too in addition to the confinement traditions.Rebeccahttp://www.beansproutbubba.com.au/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089828552519076506.post-8114799327355235612011-03-09T16:03:36.693+10:002011-03-09T16:03:36.693+10:00I agree--you sound like a great, loving and accept...I agree--you sound like a great, loving and accepting mother-in-law!

It is so nice to hear a mother in law speak well of her d-i-l.
