Dads not sure how to help nursing mums
A poll of fathers whose partner was breastfeeding has found that while most were supportive, many found themselves unsure of how best to help and some felt there were disadvantages ranging from pressure on the mother to a perceived lack of opportunity to bond with the child.
The poll of almost 500 fathers also found the majority of men had no issue with women breastfeeding in public, although more respondents admitted they would feel more uncomfortable if it was there partner who was doing so.
