- Nurse empress dowager (Chinese: 保太后; pinyin: Bǎo Tàihòu) was an honorific title given to emperors' wet nurses of the Xianbei-led Chinese Northern Wei dynasty. The existence of the title owed itself to a peculiar institution of Northern Wei—that when a son of the emperor were to be made crown prince, his mother, if alive, must be forced to commit suicide. The crown princes were therefore raised by wet nurses, and when they became emperors, they would typically honor their wet nurses as nurse empress dowagers. Often, later in their reigns, they would then honor their wet nurses as full empress dowagers, and they often had just as much influence as the emperors' mothers would have had—rendering the rationale for the Northern Wei institution of putting mothers to death (that therefore empress dowagers would not dominate the political scene) somewhat ineffective.

- 保太后,為中國古代北魏皇帝在登基之後所冊封給乳母(或褓姆)的一種封號,始於北魏世祖封乳母竇氏為保太后。 北魏有鑑於前代“女禍”,為避免母以子貴的情況發生,因而效仿漢武帝殺鉤弋夫人、立其子故事,實施所謂子貴母死制。后妃產下皇子後一律賜死,但幼齡皇子仍需旁人撫育,因此皇子由乳母看護,而皇子若即位,乳母可以哺育之功,由皇帝冊封為保太后。 但子貴母死制過度殘忍,造成後宮上自后妃、下至宮人,皆不願生下皇子,於是北魏中期後便不再實施。而有史可查的兩位保太后,之後皆改尊為皇太后。
