This is my first post here so hope this is in the right place.....
My wife is breastfeeding our second child, who is only 8 days old. It's pretty tough on her as we also have a 2.5 yr old and the lack of sleep is really making her suffer. I want to do more to help out but lack the equipment.
I've bought an electric breast pump but wondered how long I should wait before feeding the baby myself with a bottle to give my wife a rest? Will it confuse the baby if we switch to a mix of breast and bottle too soon?
Any advice much appreciated!
Thanks.
