Description

Breastfeeding doesn’t come naturally for every mom, and dads feel like there’s nothing they can do to help. This episode is packed full of tips and advice for moms as they start breastfeeding and discuss how partners can support in practical ways.

Today, we’re breaking down breastfeeding 101, sharing our own journey, and jumping into topics like
- what to expect the first two weeks
- the “fussy period” (6-10 weeks)
- tongue ties, latch difficulties, and when to get help
- how partners can support
