Ask, the correct way to breastfeed on your side.
Let the baby lie on the bed first, then you can find a good posture to lie on your side, let the baby's feet close to yourself, and then pay attention to the baby's nose not to block his breast, which is easy to cause suffocation. The following methods can be adopted:

1, hug method: Mom sits in a chair with a backrest, a backrest at the back, a pillow under her hand, and the baby leans beside her. This method is suitable for cesarean section patients, because it can just avoid the lower abdominal incision.

2, the front hug method: putting the child on the chest, facing the mother's breast, is the most common breastfeeding posture.

3, lateral lying method: suitable for postpartum fatigue, or mothers who still have difficulty sitting up.

Extended data:

The correct nursing method is to put the thumb and other four fingers of one hand above and below the breast respectively, and hold the breast up into a straight cone, and Mu Ying must be close to it, with her head and shoulders facing the breast. When breastfeeding, the mother must relax, lean forward slightly, hold the baby's neck and back with her palm, and hold the baby's head with her four fingers. When breastfeeding, pick up the baby and feed it day and night. The juice on the empty side is empty, which can better stimulate the mammary gland to secrete again. Wash the nipple before feeding, squeeze out a few drops first, and then let the child eat.

Number of times of breastfeeding

Newborns should start breastfeeding after birth and feed irregularly according to needs. Babies need frequent breastfeeding from 4 to 8 days after birth to promote the rapid increase of breast milk. For sleepy or quiet babies, breast-feeding should be done frequently during the day to meet the nutrition needed for their growth and development.

Eating at night

Postpartum fatigue, coupled with constant breastfeeding and diaper changing during the day, makes the parturient sleepy at night. When the child cries at night, the mother will feel very annoyed. Sometimes putting a pacifier into a child's mouth makes the child stop crying after eating milk, and the mother may fall asleep again, which is very dangerous. Because the child is very close to the mother when feeding, the sleeping mother doesn't know even if her breast is pressed on the child's nostril, so tragedy may occur. In order to avoid this kind of thing, it is best for mother to sit up when nursing at night.

Feeding skills

Mother should relax all over her body and be comfortable in her position, so as to be conducive to the discharge of milk. At the same time, look at the child with your eyes, talk to the child and pick up the child. The child's chest and abdomen should be close to the mother's chest and abdomen, open his mouth to hold the areola, and his chin should be close to the mother's breast.

If the baby's posture is incorrect, such as holding only the nipple, the mother will feel that the nipple is particularly painful, and the baby will have a "smacking" sound when sucking, so that the milk will not be sucked out. Because the baby can't suck milk, it will increase the sucking strength, which often leads to chapped nipple bleeding. Because of the pain, the mother will reduce the frequency of feeding and shorten the feeding time, resulting in less and less milk. Therefore, in order to ensure the success of breast-feeding, we must inhale early and inhale more, and master the correct feeding posture.
