Is this verb for the mother or for the baby?[edit]

In English breastfeed can either be the mother feeding the baby or the baby drawing milk from the mother. The definition we have right now doesnt clarify which is meant, or if it can be both. Looking at the descendants it seems to be for the mother, but I didnt want to add that in based on a guess. Thanks, Soap 18:33, 11 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
