Patient's question:
Husband and baby both suckling breast milkWhen the husband sees the baby suckling breast milk, the entire pair of breasts are exposed, and he also really wants to suckle. Can the husband and baby suckle breast milk at the same time? Can the left side be given to the husband to suckle and the right side to the baby? What precautions should be taken?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, I'm happy to answer your question for you: If you have enough milk, it is okay, and there is no problem with this. However, this also depends on your husband's drinking habits. Generally, if the milk flow is not smooth, your husband can suck it, but it is usually better for the baby to suck it. After your husband suckles, it is best to clean well to avoid cross-infection. It is recommended to consult a professional for specific situations. I hope my reply is helpful to you.
