Priyanka Dhiman Mom of a 3 yr 10 m old boy 3 years ago

well, mommies u are blessed to have such big support from ur partner..but let me be very honest.i hardly get any support as we live in a society where people still have this mental status that taking care of a baby is totally a mother's job.i had a normal delivery.but my mom in law simply said that the first milk is not good as it's a liquid which has been collected in breasts for so long..i had arguments with her.tries alot to make her understand that it's necessary for baby.but all in vein.my husband didn't said a single word to his mother.but i breastfeed my baby.also there are so many old times myths related to delivery and early care of baby..i have to fight everyday for my baby's well being.but i can not see my husband anywhere by my side..its very difficult being a mom that too when ur partner is not supportive.

The role was simple but hard for a Man, In short, He took all the big Responsibilities of a Husband, as a New father or as a guardian except breastfeeding the baby, I did only breastfeeding , eat my foods, and taking care of my baby,,, even my partner took leave from office to help and support me....

It is very awesome question. My husband helps me alot in my breastfeeding journey. He prepared breakfast when I m busy in feeding.He always take care of my hungryness. He helps me alot of my household chores even when he is very busy with office work.

Breastfeeding is something that you and your partner can do as a team. My partner knowledge and support help me in breastfeeding .My partner boost my confidence by encouraging me .He helps me in household cores so I can feed my baby for long as often as he need.
He gave me massage which makes my mind relax and energetic..which is very helpful during breastfeeding.

it's a very good question, my husband helped me alot while I'm breastfeeding in my initial days. He used to wake up along with me whenever I feed especially at nights. days were very crucial for me in the starting. He was very supportive during my breastfeeding eventhough my mom and mom in law were there, i never take help from them. because my husband only used to help me alot...now also he is helping me...I'm very happy for that

my partner gives me physical and mental support which help me for breastfeeding my baby calmly

Monisha Mom of 2 children 3 years ago

As it was a different experience for both of us and since I had backache, after feeding he ll get the baby, make her burp and let her sleep. Sometimes she won't sleep for long time and I feel bad for him. As I had sleepless nights ,he would feel pity on me. our love and affection tripled during the journey.
