Breastfeeding & champagne moment...
Ron and Stephanie
My DH was the one that started this whole thing by being uncomfortable about
breastfeeding. We have talked about positives/negatives of it, and he knows
all the feelings expressed here. I truly feel that he would be more confused
by this than if he were to just walk in to my blatant disregard of his
feelings, and was nursing. I cannot speak for the reasons that my DH would
rather I not nurse, only that we have discussed it (in length) and that we
have agreed on expressing milk for the baby. Is that not the next best
thing? Not one person has even complemented him on that decision. I just
wanted more information about LLL so I could help him with any ?? he may
have in the future. That didn't even happen. I know that this entire process
has been a joint venture, DH and I, since I could not get pregnant without a
medical staff (and DH). Since EVERYTHING regarding a pregnancy has been a
joint effort, why is it not right for him to join in the bonding and
feeding? I hope that since this is my DH we are speaking about, that this
would now go to the dead topic section, for it is a finished topic in our
home.
Thank you for all your opinions-
