Breastfeeding - How to do the Laid Back Hold

Описание: Learn about breastfeeding using the laid back hold, and why a particular hold may work better for certain mothers and babies. The laid back hold incorporates skin-to -skin between the baby and mother. This hold works well with newborns, and allows the mother to be relaxed while feeding her child.

Women & Infants Hospital supports breastfeeding because of the many health benefits it provides for both mother and baby. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends breastfeeding exclusively for the first six months. After the introduction of solid food, breastfeeding is recommended until the child is 12 months of age and may continue as long as both mother and baby desire. However, any time spent breastfeeding will benefit your baby.
