OK, so a shalom zachor is Friday night after the baby is born, and the vacht nacht is the night before the bris.
The shalom zachor, I need to serve chick peas, I know, but what else is usually customary?
And the vacht nacht? Does your husband really need to find 10 men to stay up with all night watching or can he do that on his own? And what is customary food wise??
Thanks

At the vach nacht, neighborhood children gather and sing "Shema" and "Hamalach." They usually go home with little goody bags - if a neighbor or relative says, "is there anything I can do to help?" ask her to make up some bags of nosh!
Hope this helps!

For the shalom zachor you usually serve fruits and nuts AFAIK
By the vach nacht you make a seuda for 10 people (its usually challa, salads, kugel and compote) and then your husband stays awake the whole night.
