Tips for comfortable latching!

If you’ve ever dreaded the next latch because of the sting or pinch — or found yourself hunching, sweating, and repositioning endlessly — you’re not alone. A painful latch can make even the most determined parent want to throw in the towel.

But breastfeeding isn’t supposed to be painful. A few thoughtful adjustments can turn those tense moments into comfortable, confident feeding.

Try focusing on:
• Bringing baby to you instead of leaning forward
• Aiming your ni**le towards baby's nose
• Waiting for a wide mouth
• Hugging baby towards you with tummy to tummy positioning

Comfort is a skill, not luck.

You can problem-solve an easier, pain-free latch with an in-home, insurance-covered lactation consultant who supports you in a calm, sustainable way. Nurture consultants are here to teach you the skills that will bring your version of comfort and confidence to feeding your baby.

Everyone who knows me knows I encourage and educate others about skin to skin or Kangaroo mother care frequently! Here’s some of the reasons why. It’s benefits are not only for preterm babies, all babies benefit.

Kangaroo mother care is a simple, proven and life-saving intervention for babies born early (before 37 weeks of pregnancy) or small (under 2.5kg at birth)

WHO recommends it should be started as soon as possible after birth and sustained for as many hours as possible.

It dramatically improves health outcomes while meeting baby’s needs for:
💕 warmth
💕 nutrition
💕 stimulation
💕 safety
💕 love
