Help after delivery/baby Nurse
Hi everyone - I am new here. I am going to be a first time mom next month in March.
I KNOW baby nurses are a very hot and debated topic. I am not looking for opinions, I have read them all on previous boards!
My situation is this: my husband doesn't want any help or "strangers" living with us...and I feel like he isn't prepared for how much work this little guy will be and how we will need rest and help.
We compromised on POSSIBLY hiring someone for 3 days - surrounding the Bris. The day before, the day of and the day after.
Right now we are trying to find places to hire someone... and RN, a doula, a baby nurse, etc.
Does anyone here have any recommendations of agencies/private nurses/doulas, etc to contact and talk to? If yes, please respond or send me a personal message!
Thank you for the help!

I have no recommendations, but now I'm curious why a baby nurse topic became hot and debated on LIF? Sorry not start drama or anything so pleas don't misunderstand , I just never came across a drama baby nurse thread and I honestly just can't think of one reason why a thread about baby nurses would become a hot topic? lol

Re: Help after delivery/baby Nurse
I did a google search earlier today and posts from like 2008/2009 came up from this website and someone asked about hiring a baby nurse. A lot of people have strong opinions that they aren't necessary and it makes the new moms look weak almost... or why can't family just stay and help, etc.
There are just a lot of opinions on this topic out there. My husband doesn't want one, I do. He would side with the people who don't think it is necessary.
I just want to gather information!
