Parenting: Breastfeeding, Fathers
Why has the Royal College of Midwives published new guidance on breastfeeding? What happens to a man as he becomes "Dad"?
The Royal College of Midwives has published new guidance on breastfeeding - the decision to breastfeed is a woman's choice and must be respected. Jane speaks to Rachel Scanlan, RCM's Practice and Standards Advisor.
How does a man's body and brain change when he becomes a dad? Evolutionary anthropologist Dr Anna Machin has been studying new fathers for her book 'The LIfe of Dad' and joins Jane to discuss the science of fatherhood and how much a man's genes determine what kind of father he is going to be.
