so my husband wants to feed are baby but the thing is that I will be breastfeeding so idk how it would work. he was thinking that when he wants to feed him he would give him formula but I just want my baby to have breast milk. so then he said why don't you pump your milk out and I'll feed it to him and i thought that would be the best thing but then I'm scared that my baby will get use to the bottle. I need help idk what to do because my husband really wants to feed him :/ and we need to come up with something before are baby is here. can anyone help??
thank you and is a hard decision but I hope decide on something before the baby is here.@shaunatb,
it's also about feeding technique when it comes to the bottle.
my husband felt the same way and I felt the same way you do so then I researchered and bought Dr. Brown's bottles...it's PERFECT.
I'm nursing now and I pump and breastfeed and have no problem with nipple confusing...you also should look into bottles that resemble a nipple...like @emmajeremy2627 said the Tommie tippie bottles are the best for nursing
walmart, target, babies r us, im not sure about fred meyer though
i use tommee tippie bottles and so do all my friends that breastfeed and they havent had a problem. tommee tippie resemble the breast and nipple. you should try it:)
yea I'm sure even if he had a booklet he wouldn't care lol but I will talk to him because I don't want are baby to get confused and I really want to breastfeed. @williams15
lol so is my husband. I had a booklet on breastfeeding, and I had my husband sit and read about everything, especially nipple confusion. that got my hubby convinced that I was right
thank you that helped I just hope my husband can wait that long his a lol hard headed :/ @williams15
idk I have heard women say that there babies still get use to the bottle @mama2planning1
in my breast feeding class I asked the same question. she said to involve him in other things for the first 4 to 6 weeks, then you can introduce a bottle to the equation without causing nipple confusion. then if you pump a bottle he can start feeding the baby
alternating will get the baby used to both.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
it is (was for me because I put the kids above all) but look into Dr. Brown's bottles... absolutely great.
