Nanny/baby nurse

Hello! I am 17 weeks pregnant with twin . I also have a 1-year-old DD.

My daughter will be 18 months when the twins come, and I am definitely going to need help.

Can anyone recommended or suggest where I would begin to look for a nanny or baby nurse?

Any recommendations, suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Michelle

Good idea! My DH and I have 6 week old and we would have gotten a baby nurse, but, instead we moved in with my mom.
The first 3 weeks are really trying- I was completely drained from carrying for 37 weeks and then the vag delivery.
My DH agreed we could not have done it solo.
Sorry, I don';t have any rec's but I wanted to say that I think a baby nurse is a very good idea.
Have a healthy pregnancy and yeah for

Lady - You had a vaginal delivery? I am so excited to hear that. I am hoping to do the same as long as everything looks good. Where did you deliver?

I was hoping someone would have a recomendation, if not we will probably use an agency.

Re: Nanny/baby nurse

just as an fyi you may want to post this question on the parenting board since there are more parents that read the board and also i am sure even if they did not have twins someone may have used a baby nurse

Overall my pregnancy was very good- no morning sickness, no GDiabetes, no hight BP, etc. i gained a total of 41 lbs.
Baby A was 90% of the time head down and ususally Baby B was not for the sonos, then at the 32 week sono- both were head down and remained in that position. If you can I would recc vag delvy. My dr was a big advocate of vag delvy.

I delivered at LIJ on the Friday of Fathers day weekend and I'll tell you, I have nothing but great things to say about LIJ, they treated me super well- everyone from the food delvy girl to the doctors - everyone was great, especially the nurses. It also was on the quiet side.
