breastfeeding and bottle feeding
I am a FTM and need some help.. I plan on breastfeeding my baby once she arrives and i will also be pumping so i can store some and let my husband feed her also. My question is how long should i wait after she is born and been breast feeding should i try with bottles. I heard i need to let her get used to breastfeeding first so she does not like bottles more than breast. Any help with this question. Thanks ladies
Thanks this is all so new to me and i am sure i will get into a nice schedule once she her but for now its so much to take in...
We were told to wait 2-4 weeks for bottles and pacifiers if breastfeeding. If you have difficulty or don't feel like you've established a good latch and milk, you could wait longer.
Until ur milk is well established. My doctor said around the 3 week mark
