While breastfeeding moms are doing most of the “work,” particularly in the early days, there are still many ways we can show support and provide help. Family and friends can cook meals, change diapers, help clean, watch the baby so mom can rest, or offer encouragement. Sometimes, knowing you have people in your corner can make all the difference.

Teaching Kids About Healthy Relationships Starts Early. Elementary age is the perfect time to help kids understand what it means to be a good friend, respect personal boundaries, and express their feelings in healthy ways. These conversations aren’t always easy—but they matter. Use the tips to spark open, judgment-free dialogue with your child.

By starting now, you’re building trust and creating a safe space where your child knows they can turn to you for support, no matter what comes their way.
