Positioning for Latch On

"The way you hold your baby and how your baby latches on to the breast are the keys to comfortable feeding for you and full feedings for your baby. Correct positioning and latch-on can prevent many of the common problems mothers encounter when starting to breastfeed."


Before I took my first prenatal breastfeeding class, I truly thought there was one basic position to hold your baby while nursing. Over the years, I have tried (not always successfully) some of the following holds with each kiddo.


Cradle


Cross Cradle


Football


Laid Back


Sidelying
