when my little gets here in June I want to breastfeed strictly but I feel like my fiance will miss out on getting to feed the baby any suggestions? if I pump so he can feed will she/he latch again?
I breastfeed exclusively for the first month than introduced the bottle no problem I j couldn't give her the bottle BC she wanted the real thing from me
my husband would change and burp our little guy. I introduced a bottle, the medela with slow flow nipple, at 4.5 weeks for bedtime at first so he could feed him. haven't had any problems with confusion or latch and he's now 7 weeks old :)
before introducing a bottle my boyfriend would change our son before I feed him & burp him after. it made me feel involved & it helped with bonding also. he also helped keep our son awake my tickling his feet when he would fall asleep while feeding.
My son was in the NICU for a couple days after he was born & I had to pump & give him a bottle because he was jaundice & couldn't come out from under the lights. He took the bottle no problem & latched right on after we were home. All babies are different. Don't do anything you're not comfortable with.
