Breastfeeding is an instinct, but it is not easy to achieve exclusive breastfeeding. Breast tenderness, low milk, blocked breasts, and mastitis plague many pregnant women.
Breastfeeding has natural advantages. It is a way to make babies healthier and minimize economic stress. Many mothers cannot achieve exclusive breastfeeding, but they have not mastered the correct breastfeeding skills.
Now, let’s tell the sisters about these professional skills, let us help Mommy and the baby slowly run in and feed the baby comfortably!
1. Breastfeeding position

After running in time, you can find the way that suits you best. But in fact, no matter how many breastfeeding positions there are, women will only get used to one or two of them in the end, because these two positions are the most comfortable.
1. Side lying position
Moreover, this posture is undoubtedly the most comfortable and labor-saving position for the parturients just after the cesarean section or the parturients who need to rest just after the delivery.
Side feeding will not cause otitis media . There are rumors that lying down and breastfeeding can easily lead to otitis media, so many women dare not use this position. 70% of the causes of otitis media are secondary colds. One of the advantages of breastfeeding itself is that it can reduce the incidence of otitis media. Otitis media caused by improper breastfeeding posture is that the baby is lying on his back and lying on his back. In the side-feeding posture, both mother and child are lying on their sides, so it will not cause otitis media.
2. Rugby holding posture

It is the "football holding method". The mother sits so that the child lies on her side, facing the mother. At this time, the mother bends her arms, lifts the child from below, and puts the child's head to her chest. This position can prevent the baby from directly pressing on the mother's abdomen, and can make the baby face the mother's chest and hold the nipple correctly.
3. Cradle hug position
However, when some parturients just start breastfeeding, this method may not be as easy to operate as a cradle. The baby’s nipples are not proficient in articulation, so the cradle-holding position is easier to observe and assist the baby’s nipple and areola in the best angle of view.
4. Reclining or straight chair

Put a cushion under it to have good support for your back and arms, which will make it a lot easier. Span3span
Sisters can help the parturient to place a cushion on the back as a support, and also place a cushion between the legs, bend the knees, and place the baby on the side of the parturient, facing the parturient, with the nose at the level of the nipple.
A rolled up blanket is placed behind the baby as a support, and the baby is moved towards the mother. The breastfeeding posture in the side lying position helps the mother to save energy, and it is more appropriate to feed at night.
2. Incorrect feeding position

0Babies are always in a "lying sideways" or "sideways" posture, so there is basically no wrong breastfeeding posture for babies. But a bottle-fed baby can easily become supine.
The baby's "back lying" posture may cause milk to flow into the middle ear and cause otitis media. Feeding while lying flat may also increase the risk of suffocation. Therefore, you must pay special attention to this problem when you use a bottle to feed. But there is no need to worry about breastfeeding, because no matter which position it is, the baby is lying on its side, and this problem does not exist.
