Women who have just become new mothers sometimes cannot breastfeed their babies well. Because I am a novice after all, and I have insufficient parenting experience. Therefore, when feeding the baby, most of them will not master the correct feeding posture. So, how do newborns breastfeed correctly?

Correct feeding position

It is very important for a new mother to adopt the correct feeding posture when nursing her baby. First of all, after picking up the baby, let the baby's head rest on the forearm of the nursing mother, so that the baby's head is slightly higher than the body. The mother wraps her baby's hips and back with her other hand, making sure that her head is slightly higher, so that she won't choke when nursing.

Don't block the baby's nasal cavity.

And pay attention to the breast area, don't block the baby's nasal cavity, so that you can breathe smoothly when breastfeeding, and it is not easy to be choked by milk.

Pick up the baby.

In addition, after the baby eats milk, try to hold the baby vertically for a while, and gently pat the baby's back to let out a small amount of air swallowed during breastfeeding, which can also effectively avoid spitting milk.

Don't feed too much.

And the amount of feeding should not be too much at a time. If the baby eats too much, it is easy to cause milk spilling and spitting.
