Breastfeeding technique

 Having your partner help out and keep you company during breastfeeding sessions just makes your bond stronger. Hubby loves spending time and keeping Noah calm during our breastfeeding session. Recently my husband said he wished he spent more time with his father so him spending time with Noah during our breastfeeding session is really important to him.

Dads dont get that one on one connection like mommy and baby during breastfeeding sessions but that doesn’t mean you cant participate. You can always join in and keep your spouse and baby company during feeding time. You can provide support,warm cuddles and a soothing familiar voice.

We’ve all heard that, right? What the misleading misnomer, but more importantly, such an emotional Booby Trap, since it leads Babes to feel the need to supplement or pump, and if it’s not something she’s already doing, it can open the window to such an onslaught of struggles — but it can feel like not doing it is denying the father the opportunity to bond with his babe.

Fortunately, there are so, so many other ways that dads can be engaged in their babe’s lives, that we can tuck this certain idea away back in the archives of “unnecessary advice.” Feeding is only one tiny portion of a babe’s life and by no means one that anyone else has to take over to be a special, integral part of the babe’s life. If you’re looking for ways to help your baby’s father* to feel connected, or even just want a list of things he does with your baby to squash some well-meaning family or friends who keep suggesting that you’re hogging your baby by not busting out the bottles, I’m your go-to girl.
