Initiating the first latch is the beginning to insuring your breastfeeding journey thrives.
First latch tips
• Make sure your baby is tummy-to-tummy with you.
• Remember to keep your baby’s ear, shoulder, and hip in alignment, which will make swallowing easier.
• Aim the ni**le toward the baby’s upper lip/nose, not the middle of the mouth. You might need to rub the ni**le across the top lip to get your baby to open his/her mouth.
• Look to see if the baby’s bottom and top lip are flanged out like fish lips.
