[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]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 [/quote]

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.

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.[/quote]

You are correct about proof reading before submitting but wrong about American women.[/quote]

Do you think most have a baby nurse at some point?  I think you are living in a bubble.[/quote]

I think every single one of you would love nothing more than to[b] have a live-in person who would do everything for you and that you can do nothing but bark commands to your grossly underpaid, frequently undocumented, all-in-one nanny, cook, laundress, maid/housekeeper while you have a six month maternity vacation.[/b]  I've witnessed this many times.[/quote]

This is such a weird take. I am not American and have lived in many, many countries and think American women are among the least likely to have this kind of arrangement. It's out there, for the elite, but hardly common and most American women also have less family support than is common in other cultures. [/quote]

Such a weird (and uncompassionate) take.  I can’t imagine having a baby nurse, both financially or emotionally, but I have nothing against women who do and I did have my mother come to stay when I had my babies.  For me, I wanted my home back and didn’t need so much help 1-3 weeks after the birth but I really appreciated having someone to hold the baby/clean my kitchen/distract my toddler/etc around those first couple days so I totally understand where people are coming from when they say they want more help.[/quote]
