I think it is 40 days. I am not sure, lets just wait for the experienced ladies to step in.

Going by the vedas it also depends on the varna one belongs to. Brahmins start their religious activities earlier as compared to others.

here, m'sian tamil says 30 days. we will have new baby naming ceremony and prayers after 30 days (normally on 31st days and onwards).
on 31st day morning, the new mom will bring the baby for the first time to temple.
