They say the "breast is best." It's the breast milk that has the good stuff. So if you decide to pump in addition to direct breast feeding, Dad can supplement with breast milk in a bottle while you take a much deserved nap. And should you decide to pump and perhaps find you have more milk than you know what to do with, I'll bet you can find a nearby milk bank to take the extra off your hands. Plus, I always remind moms that breastfeeding and pumping burn a TON of calories. Baby weight? Gone in a jiffy! Need another selling point for Dad? Let him know that breastfeeding your kiddo will save you big bucks in the long run. Breast milk provides good stuff to boost the immune system, therefore reducing the chances of allergies and colds, obesity and diabetes later in life. Congrats on the new addition!
