My hosiptal has a monthly breastfeeding class I help teach with the L&D nurses. I speak about medical benefits of BF and the father's role.
I base the dad role on a few ideas Dr Marianne Neifert showed on a slide at a lecture: -constant support and encouragement of mom
- physical care of baby
-physical and emotional protection of mom
- housework
If anybody has other ideas or motivating ideas I'd love to hear them.
My wife has realized she can get me to do anything by first latching our baby on to her breast.
