Get Comfortable While Nursing

You’re going to be spending a significant amount of time holding your baby to your breast while she feeds. If you do this in an unsupported sitting position, it can get uncomfortable quickly.

Additionally, trying to maintain an uncomfortable position for a prolonged period of time can lead to significant back, shoulder, and neck pain.

Not to mention, the constant squirming and moving on your part can disrupt your baby’s breastfeeding and result in irritability and increased hunger. That’s why it’s so important for you to be comfortable throughout the process.

We recommend one of two positions for comfortable breastfeeding:

• Lie on your side with your baby facing you.

• Sit in a reclined position with your baby lying in your arms.

A bed or a large couch with plenty of pillows to support your back and arms make these positions ideal for breastfeeding. Find the one that’s right for you but don’t be afraid to mix it up once in awhile depending on your own needs.

The more attentive you are to your own comfort, the more nursing sessions will be a pleasant break for both you and your baby.
