Kev is very supportive of my choice whatever it may be. He was shocked when I had changed my mind NOT to breastfeed Lys.

My husband loves it because it is very healthy for the baby and cheap for the DH With my son Grant, I ran out of milk after the thrid month so I had to stop, but we love it.

Doesn't matter one way or the other with my DH. I did tell him that if I DO decide to, I wanted to make sure I had enough privacy so I can learn to feed correctly. (Not DH, but my Monster In Law who thinks she needs to be here after the baby comes, but that's a whole OTHER thread!)

Jack was supportive. However, if we are blessed with another child, I don't think I will try again. We worked out a very good routine for us and bottlefeeding, so will stick with that.

Chris was all for it.

Brian had thrush and a bi-lateral ear infection when he was 9 months old and for 3 days that was all he would/could take.

I was a lot less stressed about it with Benjamin.

Trinity never really took to it as she had been tube or bottle fed for so long before they would let me breast-feed her as they said preemies did not have the swallowing reflex.

DH just thought that meant "they" were OFF-LIMITS until breastfeeding was over (like a year after the boys were born).

My dh thinks its great. As a matter of fact, there are like seven women at work who are getting together to get a room set up for them to breastfeed in. When I went home and told dh, he said "good they should have there own privacy"

My husband loves it!
He is so happy that we can feed our child naturally and that it is so good for her. He also likes to partake himself and it's been so helpful to me when I have been uncomfortably full. He is always there to relieve the pressure for me and has even suggested continueing after I wean our daughter.
We are so grateful to God for this wonderful gift!
