your child is your impression, nourish it as you would pamper yourself..

A baby’s father is not the only kind of partner who can support breastfeeding. A partner may also identify as a co-mother or co-parent, or may be a grandparent or other relative, a close friend, a doula, or anyone else that the nursing parents identify as their partner in breastfeeding.

During the birth, your role as a birth support partner is to give emotional and physical support and encouragement. You can help your partner by reminding her to breathe slowly, massaging her, and helping her to get more comfortable. Don't be surprised if she changes her mind a lot!

Indeed breastfeeding is important for both mother and baby for its immunological, hormonal impacts,but as we step into the shoes,we can't deny its tough . My Husband, being a strong believer in co- parenting,try to make my things easier at his best possible ways. Knowing the fact that a sufficient milk production is only possible when i can stay stress free,he talks to me or stay awake with me at nights while i am feeding ,shares some chores so that i can find time for relaxation,helps me to co sleep with baby so that i need not to go sleepless completely,takes care of my medicines,even he helps me to pump when my hands aches during expressing milk.Last but not the least ,i found him trying to hold my confidence up during my post partum depression,when the other members of my family hardly understood. Its being a month only the we just set off our journey for parenthood and its for him, undoubtedly,that i am gained my confidence back.

after 4 years of my marriage life I got biggest gift in my life is my Son , He was born in 31 weeks i was scared initially there was no flow of milk in me i had to struggle to feed my baby but I was sure that I doesn't want to give him formula milk , i son got jaundice so doctor advised me to feed him continuously , first my flow was very low but that's were my confident level increased in hospital i started to pump n extract my milk for every one hour then slowly i started to feed him every 2 hours , now comes my husband support after seeing my struggle every night whenever I use to get to feed my son my hubby use to get up long with me n wash the feeding bottle with warm water until i pump my milk n feed my baby my hubby use to sit with me , after feeding he use to ask me to sleep then my hubby use to carry my baby make him to burp.

Partner’s involvement is must in pregnancy and in child growth as well.. Durimg pregnancy a lady faces alot of problems which she might can’t share with anyone else except her husband And when He supports her ,understands and help her in any activity from household chores to her relaxing her gives Mother a biggest support. He can encourage mother to do prenatal exercise from starting to end by helping her. And after delivery when mother can do through postpartum depression only he can help her get rid of that . In initial days when mother needs rest he can take care of baby
