Engaging Your Partner in the Feeding Journey
Partners play a vital role in breastfeeding success, providing emotional support and helping with other responsibilities so you can focus on feeding. This week, involve them in tasks like burping, soothing, or preparing snacks for you during nursing sessions.
Your breasts may feel less engorged overall as supply regulates further, and let-downs might become quicker. Milk composition remains tailored to your baby, providing just the right balance of nutrients and immune-boosting components.
Tips for You This Week
- Share breastfeeding milestones with your partner—celebrating together strengthens your bond.
- Encourage skin-to-skin time between your baby and partner—it’s beneficial for everyone!
- Remember: teamwork is essential to make this journey sustainable and joyful.
Fun Fact:
