I thought you might like to read this article on the Israel Center website: ---------------------------------------------- Aliyah by Aliyah - Tazria-Metzora Perek 12, the shortest in the Torah with 8 p’sukim (not that we are responsible for the chaptering of the Torah), deals with “birth”. A woman becomes “ritually unclean” following a (normal) birth - one week for a boy - and on the 8th day the boy is circumcised - and two weeks for a girl. This period of TUM’A is followed by a special “waiting time” of 33 or 66 days for boy or girl respectively, after which the mother is to bring the korbanot of a YOLEDET. http://www.ouisrael.org/tidbits/detail/84/
