Correct positions when breastfeeding
*********************
Sit up straight with your back and feet supported.
Wrap your arms around the baby's back, bringing him closer to you.
Place your hand under the baby's neck and shoulder instead of the head to allow him to take the appropriate position for him when feeding. You can also use a number of pillows to support the baby's position.
Bring your baby close to your breast and do not bend your back.
Make sure the nipple is in contact with the baby's upper lip.
Caress the baby's mouth with the nipple, and you will notice his response by opening his mouth and pointing his tongue down.
Make sure that the baby's lip is firmly applied to the nipple and part of the breast.
It is better to breastfeed alternately, that is, if a mother breastfeeds her child from one breast, she uses the other in the next feeding, and so on, and is careful to clean the nipple with a cloth dampened with water before feeding.
