I agree the comfort you can get with your family & your own mother you can not get anywhere else. When mother’s come to stay they just take care of the daughter & the baby rest of the things are done by inlaws & hubby like hospital visits etc but in case when the girl goes to her mahka all the responsibilities are the fulfilled by her family(in most of the cases). Like you said “during last few weeks” what I referred to was when the girl goes to her mahka a couple of months before her due date.
and I think DA’s case she is a few months away from her due date right now !
