It’s important for dads not to
pressure mom to express her milk or supplement with
formula so you can help feed the baby. It’s important
for her and the baby to have breastfeeding firmly
established (4 weeks or so) before introducing a bottle.
Doing this too early could affect her supply and could
possibly derail breastfeeding success.
For more information,
contact the breastfeeding peer counselor at the Logan
County Department of Public Health, 217-735-2317, ext.
246.
