Since MIL doesn't work, she's going to come down and stay with BIL/FSIL and come over every day to watch her. We're giving her 2 weeks. Nanny says she'll be good to go in a week, but we're insisting on at least 2 (especially if she has a c-section).
holy crap. nanny wants to start working again FAST!
IKR?! I was like... no. You need at least 2 weeks, especially since it's her and her H's first baby together (her other 2 are from a previous relationship). That, and if she has a c-section, there's no way she can take care of a newborn and chase M around, too.
i guess as a nanny, it really isn't too bad..other than you have to take care of two babies...and in your case LL, 3. what if small baby wants to eat/nurse/clusterfeed, and another baby is unexplainable crying? i just can't imagine needing to put on a pretty smiley face at 2 weeks.
