Partners play an important role in making breastfeeding easier for mums.
Some ways partners can help out
Emotional support
- Give hugs and say kind words to make mum feel happy.
- Tell her she is doing a great job and that you are proud of her.
Practical help
- Clean and cook so mum can focus on feeding the baby.
- Bring water, snacks, and anything else she needs during feeds.
- Take care of the other kids while mum is feeding the baby.
Hands-on help
- Help with night-time feedings, like bringing the baby or burping them.
- Create a comfy space for breastfeeding with pillows.
