Wet Nursing: Your Parents Did It. Now Your Kids Can, Too.

Guanabee knows that wet nurses have a long history in the Latino community, but it’s one we’re happy to leave in the past. Not so for Lorna Medina, of Tuscon, Arizona, who nursed the infant of her working sister for a year. Medina says it created a unique bond with her niece and according to Time, the practice is having a minor resurgance among young moms in America. Emphasis on minor, we’re sure.

Brenda, 42, has wet-nursed 10 babies in the past seven years partly to help send her own two kids to college. “If you’re someplace with the family and the baby starts to pull at your blouse or put his hand in your bra, that can be embarrassing,” she says, laughing.

Haaaah… Good times.
