hey mohna,
after delivery, u ll be bleeding for a coupla weeks and u may be too tired to walk. and u will hv trouble passing stools and may hv bladder control probs.if u hv c-sec, it will be even more diff.
its all common, bareable and part of pregnancy.

will u be comfortable with ur mother in law changing u/dressing u/bathing u/helping u get off the toilet in case u cant? (in the first few days)
will u be comfy with her teaching u how to breast feed? can u be free and ask her for food in the middle of the night? and ask her to do ur laundry or be frank?
if u say yes to all the questions above, go ahead to ur inlaws place for delivery.

but, i think mom's place is best. in south india, every new mom goes to maike for birth...since ur mom already has seen u naked and helped u when u got ur first periods, u wont feel shy....that's wat i feel..
but ultimately it's upto u!!
good luck!! Mohna replied. Thanks Purnima!

I think you are correct..
Thats what I too feel when it comes to comfort level. I am too frank with my mom but obviously not like that with my mom-in-law. I have decided to go to my mom's place for delivery. :-)

Thanks again for your wonderful advice!
