Lucky you! 我是台灣人可是嫁給老外都沒有這個福氣坐月子!還好只有生一個。 Now I am 64 and live in Wyoming. 很高興看到美國人介紹台灣。 I am looking forward to visit Taiwanese family with my husband again in February.
One thing my wife appreciates were gifts that are for the mom. Everybody gave gifts for the baby but none for the mom, and moms rarely got anything if at all.
