Men and Breastfeeding

The good news is, modern men are advocates of breastfeeding. According to this article:

“Men’s attitudes towards breastfeeding have positively evolved over the last 15 years, according to a new survey commissioned by Kamillosan…”

If your partner is uncomfortable with breastfeeding, good communication is key. Educate him in a non-threatening way about how breastfeeding will benefit him and his child.

Like other parenting issues, this probably should be a topic of conversation before the baby ever comes along.

My 10 year old says he won’t marry a woman unless she is going to breastfeed his child. :-)
