    Hi,

    My due date is in March 2014. Im in austin texas currently, I would not have my family members during my delivery and only me n hubby have to manage alone. iM consulting at St davids healthcare at north austin.

    I m concerned about the indian foods that i can take post my delivery. As i cant cook myself..my hubby has to do it. Do u have any suggestions who can cook post delievry food for me in and around north austin.

    I know its too early to break my head for these things right now... but yes its a concern...

    If not give me the list of indian foods once can take post delivery..

    Thanks..:):coffee

    Shruti,

    I'm also from north Austin and I see home made food flyers posted in grocery stores. Call and ask them if they can cook food after delivery.

    :cool2:Congrats to u Uma.. :). Its so nice that I ve got someone due in march 2014. Lemme check some home made food flyer this time..

    me sick of eating the food prep by me.. most of the times my DH cooks these days.

    I feel like eating outside food most of the times.

    If anything cud be there for the best affordable price.. i can have it from there whenever i want to.

    I don't feel like anything but Indian. My husband doesn't cook. So, I have to cook. There is no other option :-(

    Usually we like to eat out a lot. We eat out at least 2-3 times a week. Where do you go for Indian food in north austin?

    congrats on your pregnancy. I gave birth to my daughter on June and me and my husband tackled everything alone since then. It will be really tough during 1st month by later it will be smooth. I cook simple things like daal, rice and some vegetable stir fry :) these things your husband can easily make. and if you want to breastfeed try oatmeal, it increases supply. If you have normal delivery it would not be very tough to do regular household stuffs, I even cooked on the day we returned from hospital, as we were pissed off with the quality of food in hospital and being in a small town we dont have much choice of Indian food here.

    by the way if you have any friends request them to give you home cooked food on the date of your delivery, I had to eat the worst thing in hospital after delivery (during labor they wont allow you to eat anything, so you will be empty stomach right after delivery) and I vomited (I did not vomited during 9 months of my pregnancy :p). So it will be good idea to bring home cooked indian food to eat right after delivery.
