“… in a hospital setting with very little time… your chart … is worth far more than a thousand words!   The diagrams are outstanding!    read more ....               

                                           RN Lactation Consultant – Name withheld 

Demonstrates and Describes:

 

  • How to help a baby take a deep comfortable mouthful of breast.
  • Why such deep attachment allows pain free breastfeeding & good milk removal.
  • The practical steps that support a baby’s inborn latching behaviours.


The attachment behaviours demonstrated in this chart are useful across the spectrum of early breastfeeding problems and are especially helpful when anatomical variations, such as, flat or inverted nipples, a more recessed chin, shorter tongue or mild tongue tie interfere with a baby’s ability to scoop up an adequate mouthful of breast. 

 

Sit with a mother and use the unique illustrations to explain:

 

  • How her baby needs to take the breast for comfortable effective breastfeeding.
  • Why baby chooses to approach the breast with chin & mouth forward and head tilted back
  • Why baby needs to take more breast below her nipple.

To help baby position the tongue and lower jaw deep under the breast and allow the nipple to roll to the back of baby’s mouth, a safe place where it cannot be pinched or damaged.

  • When baby wont latch - Learn to breastfeedHow to offer baby more breast below the nipple.

Also use the hamburger analogy described in the ‘Holding Me” chart,  or see Glover, R. Wiessinger, D. (2012)

  • Where baby’s bottom lip needs to anchor on the breast for a deep latch

Areola size varies – the bottom lip needs to anchor at least 3-4 cm from the base of the nipple

  • How a deep latch helps her baby remove good quantities of milk from the breast.
  • Feeding behaviours that indicate baby is breastfeeding effectively.
