Cradle hold
ОглавлениеThis is the classic breastfeeding image of a baby suckling at the breast. It’s great if you can make it work as it’s a relaxed and comfortable position for both of you that you can do anywhere without needing too many props! Just make sure you have a pillow under the arm the baby’s head is resting on.
I used the cradle hold with Chester, and when we were struggling to feed I was advised to sit in an upright chair, place my feet on a footstool and use a breastfeeding U-shaped pillow to support him. Apparently it’s the optimum feeding position and it definitely eased the strain on my back in those difficult days.
