It'll be nice to have one but definitely not necessary (IMO) you can have your husband helping you out and if really needed, your parents or in law. Meal wise, you can consider ordering confinement food.
Hi! I did not hire nanny or engage anyone’s help, just me n husband, we take turns to do chores, take care of baby etc. Super easy for us but it could differ for everyone else
i guess the difference is - if ur CN annoys u, u can tell her off. if ur in-law annoys u, u can't. hahaha
Just get yourself a confinement nanny instead of asking in law to help in order to save your sanity.
