Direct breastmilk feedings from the mother's breast are always preferred to any artificial source or substance. In addition, there are often alternatives to bottle-feeding, such as cup feeding, which should be explored. For the baby who has to be bottle-fed, following is some information to help make the experience a good one for the baby and also to make sure that breastfeeding is fully supported even when artificial feedings are used.

Our baby is 5 weeks old. My husband and I both agree that breast is best, but since our son was born my husband has been asking me to start pumping milk so he can give baby a bottle each night. We have had many breastfeeding difficulties and are still struggling at times. I am worried about nipple confusion, but my husband just says I'm being emotional and a nervous new mom and is unwilling to read any information from books or websites. He says he wants to help with nighttime feedings so I can get more sleep at night, but he never hears the baby when he wakes at night. Do you have any suggestions?
