If you could tell new mother's one thing, what would you say?

Don't be afraid to put your foot down even if it is family. I know with my first, the few few months of her life all I wanted was some time at home with her and my husband. I didn't see her the first 3 days of her life because she was in the NICU and I was confined to a hospital bed being treated for preeclampsia. And even after that she was in the hospital for a week before I could bring her home. I felt like every day someone was coming over to see the baby. I felt like I couldn't say no but honestly I just needed rest. It's hard enough having to adjust to a completely different life and taking care of a new baby without the stress of having to constantly entertain! With my second baby I put my foot down immediately. The first month were sparse visits on our schedule and then we held a picnic when we were ready so the whole family could meet and hold her. I'll tell you it was the best decision I've ever made!
