Sibling nursing or perhaps relatives or neighbours. Every where else around the world, the mentality is truly "it takes a village to raise a child" and often neighbours are considered family

Nursing when it started to become socially acceptable in some areas

Rich or poor- nursing comes in all forms

Subhanallah, look at all these Muslimahs fulfilling their childrens rights by nursing! In Islam it is the right of the child upon the parent to be nursed until the age of 2.
