At the child's birth, especially if it is the firstborn, the woman can meet many difficulties. For example, the correct organization of feeding becomes a problem in a number of situations. In this case it is the simplest from the very beginning to teach the child to take a breast correctly.
Instruction
1. Choose a pose for feeding, convenient for you and the child. It is possible to feed and lying, but often it is more convenient to do it sitting. Hold the child with a hand under which it is possible to put a pillow or the roller. In this case you should not strain, holding a hand suspended long time. It is also possible to sit on a low chair so that the hand holding the child itself in turn leaned on the bent knees. The child needs to be held so that his neck was not bent and was flush with the head. You watch that hands of the child did not disturb you when feeding.
2. Prepare a nipple. It is recommended to moisten it with maternal milk. There is no consensus - to wash a breast just before process or not. But the point of view that for mother it is enough to observe daily hygiene, as well as before pregnancy and childbirth prevails, and special disinfection of a breast can only damage to nipples.
3. Give to the child a breast. For this purpose bring a nipple to his mouth, having touched lips, provoke opening of a mouth, and then bring closer the baby to a breast. You watch that it in a mouth had not only a nipple, but also an areola. It will increase receipt of milk and also minimizes possible injuries of a breast when feeding. If necessary help the child, slightly squeezing a breast.
4. You watch that the child could breathe freely when feeding. For this purpose do not press down his nose closely to a breast, giving it the chance to normally receive oxygen.
