2. They do!

Mom is a 'first timer' and is very nervous so we are giving her all the time she needs to realize she NEEDS HELP!! We were all given orders to get our vaccinations up to date and we've all offered to wear masks until she gets comfortable. She joined a lot of 'first time mom' groups and is going off of their advice. She should have turned to a more experienced bunch. Unfortunately she's totally estranged from her mother and her mother in law (my sister) is dead. She has been assured that all she needs to do is call and I and/or the auntie will be there in a flash so that she can get some rest.
