Breastfeeding - Step by Step


Breastfeeding is more than the baby pushing on your chest and let nature take its course. For many women who are first time mothers, breastfeeding is a book with seven seals. How can you lay the baby on properly, so suck it good? To develop a good technique, follow these steps:


Tickling the corners of the mouth of your baby with your finger or nipple. To encourage it to suck.

Wait until the baby has opened his mouth before offering the nipple perpendicular to it. Many women with her free hand like her breast in his hand, so that the baby is well on the nipple.

Make sure that your baby gets the right breast in his mouth. A large part of the nipples court, if not all, should be covered in baby's mouth. Important: upper and lower lips of your baby should be slipped to the outside (like a small fish mouth!). Otherwise, it swallows too much air.

It is best if your baby's mouth is open wide so that you can invest it well.

As long as your baby drinks, keep it close to the body, sometimes it is helpful to press his head and neck a little in itself. This is also good if you use a nursing pillow.

If done properly, breastfeeding may be a great, wonderfully intimate experience for both mother and child.
