Can Biological Father Take Custody Of Newborn For A Week?
During the first months with a newborn, is it a bad idea for the bio dad to take custody of the child for a week at a time? The mother is breast feeding. This is for my daughter who is in her third trimester and is planning for child care for her baby.

Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
Breast feeding is the best feeding for the baby.
Keeping the baby exclusively in the custody of biological father is debarring breast milk for the baby.
It is the birth right of a baby to have access to breast feeding .
None can deny this right,
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
