Loved your comment about the mum featured in the Woman's Day. How sensible they were to spend time getting to know their baby without all the well meaning advice. One of the things new mum's identified in a study in the Dec MIDERS was the need for management of basic physiological needs some as sleep and pain management before any other needs such as education can be addressed. Those of us who work in hospitals need to be reminded ocasionally of the need to give women time to catch up on sleep etc. It is so much easier at home to control unwanted visitors (not to mention cleaners etc).
