Would you seriously consider letting other women breast feed your baby?

I suppose it is okay depending on your culture. According to my culture it is not okay. I would feel very uncomfortable having my child at the breast of another woman.

I see nothing wrong with that. Wet nursing was very common especially in Europe.
If you and your SIL are okay with it and she is healthy, why not?

I feel that it is a very personal bonding time with mother and baby. Again, this is my culture.
