Her mom came to live with her during the weeks after her baby's birth for "confinement."
AdvertisementShe spent the week before birth preparing nourishing foodA week before I gave birth, I flew my mom in from Wisconsin.
Before the baby was born, mom spent her days preparing food for my confinement — peeling, chopping, dividing, and freezing.
Without my mom preparing food for me, I know I would have just eaten what was quickly available.
Although it's been more than 30 days, my mom is still here caring for me, Lily, and the house.
