Techniques for proper breastfeeding

Techniques for proper breastfeeding

The mother tried to touch her nose with her nipple. or lips to encourage children to open their mouths Support the child's head to the chest for the chin. and the baby's lower lip touches the breast first Do not forget that you have to carry the baby to the mother's breast. Not bending down to look at the mouth of the child.
 
The postures for breastfeeding are as follows:

1) Sitting and breastfeeding position Hold the baby lying on the side of the baby's belly close to the mother's belly. The child's face was lifted up to see the mother's face. The baby's body rests on the mother's loins. and use your hands to hold and tighten the ball You may find pillows to support your back, under your arms, and on your lap for comfort while breastfeeding.

2) Sitting position and carrying around the chest in alternating arms (football position). Find a pillow to place on the side of the mother's body. Place the baby on the pillow and hug the baby to the side on the right side. The mother wants to breastfeed by having the baby lie in a semi-lateral, semi-supine position with feet pointing backwards and palm on the same side as the breast. Support the occipital and back of the child.
