Breastfeeding tip for new and expecting mamas

Before you have your baby please watch videos on how to properly latch your baby if you plan to breastfeed. I wish someone told me this, but I hope to save someone’s boobs. Ps. You should feel a pulling sensation not a pinch while they feed!! Hope this helps someone out there

Yes and make sure it’s more than just the nipple in their mouth. Shove it in there or it will wreck your nips and create a bad latch habit.

@Emily Omg I learned this the hard way!!! Luckily my friends have children and helped me out. It’s crazy the things we never think about or just haven’t been taught

@destiny I thought I had thrush and at my 7 week lactation appointment (like my 5th appointment 🙄)she was finally like that latch is shallow fix it and see what happens. And now we’re doing great. I used to dread feeding him because it hurt so bad. He was 13 lbs at his 7 week appointment so I know he was getting milk lol I just almost couldn’t take it

@Emily I’m so glad she finally caught on. My nips were sooo sore in the beginning and I had that same dreadful feeling! So glad you got some help mama

Thompson Method videos are the best!
