Ah, bhai, everyone talks of forty days of rest, but in our hills, a new mother is back helping with the goats by day ten—the fields don't wait. We keep a small diya lit and avoid outsiders, but strict confinement? That's for families who can afford the extra hands. My own wife was cooking dal by the second week because my pension doesn't stretch to a hired helper.
