Does it feel like your S.O. doesn’t exactly know what to do when you nurse? If so, you aren’t alone. Muhammed Nitoto, a new dad, recently gave the proud papas who are kind of at a loss when it comes to breastfeeding a primer on how to help.

Nitoto posted a family pic (during nursing time) on Instagram, writing, “Last Month was Breastfeeding Awareness Month. So I figured id drop some knowledge on my fellow Dads and soon to be Dads.”

The dad continued, “Here’s what it looks like for the first few weeks or months after your child is born. Yup if mom breastfeeds they pretty much are tucked like this and at times you’ll wonder “what is there for me to do?”

So what does Nitoto advise? The dad provides five totally helpful tips, including what fathers can ask their nursing wives/girlfriends/partners to make them more comfortable and much more. For the full list of this rad dad’s tips, visit his Instagram post here.
