Maybe it's something that's been around for years but, I have to say, that's a new one for me!  Does everything REALLY need to be posted to social media?http://www.huffingtonpost.com/mama-bean/what-happened-when-i-posted-a-photo-of-a-mom-breastfeeding-her-friends-son_b_7967402.html?ncid=txtlnkusaolp00000592 4951

Nursing a child is a wonderful, natural thing and you used to be able to hire wet-nurses if the mother could not produce milk or for other reasons.I applaud the woman for being so open about it.  Now, move over junior, it's my turn!  Emoticon 4951

@djchavez0921:
 
They are trying to raise awareness. And it looks like it's a page dedicated to raising awareness, and others decided to share it on their personal wall.
 
"Maybe it's been around for years" is right. Think about a time before formula. If a mother wasn't producing enough milk, how did she keep her baby from dying of starvation? And there is a well known bible story that talks about this. When Pharoah's daughter "adopted" Moses, she hired a wet nurse to feed the baby, and there were plenty from which to choose since Pharoah had ordered the killing of all of the Israelite baby boys. Not coincidentally, Moses' mother was the one she hired. The phrase, "it takes a village" is about much more than safety and discipline. It used to be about infant survival. 4951

Oh no @GoldenGirl!  A lactation specialist shows you how to do help the baby latch on etc.A wet nurse will just nurse your baby for you.  My Grandmother had a wet nurse for my mom.  My mom was the youngest of 7 so I guess she had produced all the milk she could by thenEmoticon  
 
@Fallon: awhhhh you are right !!!  I didn't read the thread completely....  A wet nurse nurses for you.. My mistake!!!
