A few steps to promote successful breastfeeding

It is best for the mother to be in a sit-to-stand position when feeding her baby. Sit on a chair so that the front chest is straight. Hold the baby with both hands so that the baby’s face is facing the mother’s forehead, which will help the baby to find the mother’s nipple by itself. Secondly, when the baby is sucking, the mother should remember not to block the baby’s nostrils, as this will affect the baby’s breathing, and let the baby start sucking from one side of the breast first, and then switch to the other side after the opposite breast is probably empty. After breastfeeding, hold the baby upright and gently pat the baby’s back to let the baby expel the gas swallowed by sucking and to prevent spitting up.
