Mothers heart is big enough for all her kids. She loves them equally no matter if there is two or five. She carries good memories with each child and experience with each one will be different.

What they show on tv and reality is quite different. As a parent I don't agree with what they have shown. In reality I wouldn't want all those relatives hovering over the baby when they are just few days old. The kids are not immunized. Mine had colic where they cry all the time.Personally I feel it is what you wish to do. On tv they have romanticized it when reality is very stressful.

I don't agree with duggu being in the same room. You are trying to recover yourself and take care of the baby. I don't think any pediatrician would recommend that. Better would be for father or grandparents take care of the first child(in another room). You are trying to get the baby on a regular sleep and feedings schedule. I've seen some women have a nurse with them the first two weeks taking care of mother and baby. Priority should be to heal and recover and take care of baby. When you are feeding a new baby no-one is sitting all dressed up with makeup on initially. You are exhausted. Again the choice is yours what you are most comfortable with. I wouldn't rely on a Show for guidance but rather a doctor or close family members. My kids are college age now so things have changed. My goal was to heal because I was returning to work in six weeks. Best would be do what is suitable for your circumstances.

You will get lots of suggestions but you have to follow your intuition. Get the first child to be your helper as needed.
