Is it required or is it the norm that the 2 inlaws come for your first baby?
Is it the norm that one of the mothers must stay for at least 3 months when your first baby is born to help you?
Who stays? Or which one is more common, husband's mother or wife's mother?

Note: This is not about me oh, they are just random questions that i always wonder about.
More questions to come. Feel free to ask or answer questions please. Share ur thoughts. Need to know some things.
Whatever works for you. If your mom is alive then I say go with that. It is a little tricky with mother in laws. I can ask my mom to do things for me that I cannot ask my mother in law. If I need help I need someone who can actually help. I don't do tradition in situations like this
