| If money is not a huge concern, when do people generally stop needing/wanting a baby nurse for a new baby? |

| If money isn't a concern I'd say 6 months and sleeping through the night. I also know people with unlimited funds that keep baby nurses for a year |

| You transition to a nanny eventually. Always have more than one caregiver in the rotation. |

| Or a fully staffed home. Nanny during the day, night nanny, fill in for sick days and vacations. I'd also get a postpartum doula - someone to take care of me while someone tends to the baby if you have monopoly money |

| Wow why even respond if you don’t have helpful answers. We used one and I’d say 6 months. Most people say 6-8 weeks but I think that’s for money reasons. The time you must need them is during the 4 month sleep regression, which can last weeks or months. And if you don’t keep your night nurse/doula consistently during that time, baby will reject them if you try to re-hire later once you hit regression (this happened to us) or The nurse you used will have moved onto a contract with another family and be unavailable. Just book for 6 months upfront. |

| A good one should be able to have the baby on a schedule by 12 weeks. |

Why do people like you have a child? The bond is created through mother/infant intimacy and care. A night nurse bringing infant to you to nurse me as he's you nothing more than a wet nurse. America women are the most entitled and laziest women on earth. |

| Parent work schedules would be a huge factor for me. |

Don’t worry. No way any woman would have a child with you so no need to worry about us. |

Are you basing your assessment of "America women" on this one random post about needing a baby nurse? Let me assure you that the vast majority of America women do not have a baby nurse at any point in their children's lives. This is a thread for the elite of DCUM and they know who they are and will respond accordingly. Meanwhile you might work on not generalizing and stereotyping America women so much and also do some proofreading before you hit submit so your sentences make sense. |
