Congratulations to all!! You must be so relieved and overjoyed!
Tiredoutgran, when I had my ds last year, our parents did two things which meant a lot to us and really made the transition easier. I hope you don't mind if I share, I know all family relationships are different though.
The first thing they did which was amazing was bring us food. Not frozen or dried things, but fresh salads, freshly roasted chicken, a bolognese, cut fruit salads. All were in portions / quantities small enough not to go to waste and to allow me to snack on when I had two seconds to as the concept of "meals" went out the window. If they came over in an evening they brought a whole meal over with them, we say down together and ate it, then they cleared it up and took it home with them again. Only small, but I will never forget the thought!
I credit eating really well the first few weeks with a successful start to bf, our parents and my dh were a huge part of this. If it hadn't been for them I'd have lived on biscuits and dry cereal!!
Secondly, they gave us space. I know they worried and wanted to help every moment of the day, but they made it very clear to us that they were there when we needed them... Not all the time. We had great support from NCT friends who were going through the same thing as we were, and between the help from these friends and the love of our family, I look back and think we had a pretty good first few months.
Enjoy your beautiful new grandchild and congrats again! xx
