Let me start by stating the obvious. Also when it comes to Breastfeeding the old saying ’Practice makes perfect’ surely applies. Obviously no one knows how to nurse a baby before they actually start breastfeeding. So use your network of other moms, doctors and nurses that know about nursing. You may even want to ask your mom as she was the one who breastfed you. Although you may have to sort in all the old wives tales that you may be told. But remember that millions and millions have all been there and they figured it out – and so will you
Even so it may be worth remembering a few other little things about Nursing
- Take it easy: It will all work out
- Drink a lot of water while you are nursing – it will help you produce milk for your baby
- It is important to sleep in the period when you breastfeed – Call on your network of parents, partner, friends to get some time to sleep
- Make sure you are sitting well and that your baby lies well – it may be good to use a nursing pillow
- Make sure that you have everything you need within reach so that you do not have to break off from nursing
And when the breastfeeding milk run to within the first 2-3 days your breast will become harder than you could ever imagine. Those first days are not easy – and you will see that it is another painful part of becoming a mom – but it is worth it. Breastfeeding milk is the best start to life for your little one. Make sure your baby empties out your breasts as much as possible. When you get to that point you will see that you have come to the other side of your nursing experience and Breastfeeding will become easier and so fulfilling. 😊
