Does anyone hire a confinement nannny before?

I didn't hire any confinement nanny because my ex husband thought that I could manage it on my own since I have 8 weeks of maternity leave. I agreed, I didn't know better and regretted that decision 1 week after birth. I didn't have any help from my parents or ILs, so I struggled on my own. My ex husband wasn't of much help, and it didn't help that I had severe pelvic pains post pregnancy so that made picking up my son a lot harder. I was struggling with breastfeeding so much and within 3 weeks after giving birth, I got into post natal depression. I got better only after my sister stepped in to help me out. If I were to have another child in the future, I'd definitely insist on a confinement nanny. Confinement period is a time for new mummies to rest and heal, that is the purpose of the 8 weeks maternity (aside from spending time with your newborn of cos). Book your confinement nannies well in advanced as the popular ones are usually quickly taken up.
