The Lost Period of Women's Social History

Lying in is part of the process between birth and kind of returning to public life that's seen as quite important in this period. So it wasn't necessarily a luxury of the rich it was actually considered to be very normal except for women who were very poor do you think? You're exactly right so we mustn't romanticize and that you know particularly at the lower end of things life is extremely hard but communities do work together to kind of put this lying in process into place.
