If you haven't thought about whether your spouse would prefer to breastfeed or bottle-feed your baby, it is time to start. You should learn more about both options and make a decision about what your spouse plans to do. According to the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, breastfeeding is much better than formula-feeding for your baby's health and your own. Find out all the facts about breastfeeding.

Talk to your doctor or a pediatrician about breastfeeding. Then make the decision that is right for your spouse and the baby. Visit a breastfeeding center to learn more about the benefits, to find out how to make it work best for her, and to get tips on breastfeeding while working.
