看着身边很多华人月子期间请月嫂，便纠结自己需要不需要请月嫂，请不请月嫂每家的理由不一样。

Seeing many Chinese women around me hiring postpartum nannies during their postpartum period, I'm torn about whether I need to hire one too. Every family has different reasons for not hiring one.

1、从科学育儿的角度讲，请月嫂应该是刚需，即使双方父母都有时间伺候月子。除非你的家人有人是高级月嫂也乐意照顾月子，那也得考虑到是否可以忍受月子期间的各种麻烦事，比如产后抑郁。

2、从经济的角度考虑，有能力的请好的高级月嫂或者金牌月嫂，经济条件差点的请便宜点的初级月嫂或者中级月嫂，甚至放弃请月嫂自己亲自照顾。

3、从时间的角度讲，太多的华人家庭需要请月嫂，解放出来自己轻松坐月子。因为专业的月嫂可以让不专业的产妇及家人免于手忙脚乱，更别说那些没有人伺候月子的小夫妻了。

Is it necessary for Chinese American families to hire a postpartum nanny?

1. From a scientific parenting perspective, hiring a postpartum nanny should be a necessity, even if both sets of parents have time to help during the postpartum period. Unless you have a family member who is a highly skilled postpartum nanny and willing to provide care, you also need to consider whether you can tolerate the various inconveniences during the postpartum period, such as postpartum depression.

2. From an economic perspective, those who can afford it can hire a high-quality, top-tier postpartum nanny; those with limited funds can hire a more affordable entry-level or intermediate-level nanny, or even forgo hiring a nanny and care for the mother personally.

3. From a time perspective, many Chinese American families need to hire a postpartum nanny to free themselves up and make the postpartum period easier. A professional postpartum nanny can save untrained mothers and their families from being overwhelmed, not to mention young couples who have no one to help them during their postpartum period.

1、基本上来说，父母伺候月子一般来说是最大成本的，夫妻两人不好意思或者无法指使自己的父母做事，而且由于不专业或者情绪的影响，落下月子病更是遗憾一辈子。

2、假设我们请月嫂坐月子，月嫂服务期间家人最好多向月嫂学习请教，免得月嫂下户之后产妇及家人突然感觉束手无措；而且孩子对月嫂的依赖和哭闹会让父母多少有点郁闷、失落或遗憾。

Important Considerations for Chinese Americans Hiring a Postpartum Nanny:

1. Generally speaking, the cost of parental care during the postpartum period is the highest. Couples may feel embarrassed or unable to ask their parents to do things, and due to a lack of professionalism or emotional factors, postpartum illnesses can develop, leading to lifelong regret.

2. If you hire a postpartum nanny, family members should learn from and consult with her as much as possible during her service. This will prevent the mother and family from feeling helpless after the nanny leaves. Furthermore, the baby's dependence on the nanny and their crying can cause parents some frustration, disappointment, or regret.
