, Human milk provides an ideal balance of nutrients for
newborns. Breastfeeding is advantageous for the
following reasons:
- Human milk is digestible and economical and
requires no preparation.
- Extra calories are used, which promotes weight
loss gradually without dieting.
- Sucking helps to develop the muscles in the
infant’s jaw.
- Absorption of lactose and minerals in the
newborn is improved.
- The immunologic properties of breast milk help
prevent infections in the baby.
- The composition of breast milk adapts to meet
the infant’s changing needs as they grow.
- Constipation in the baby is not a problem with
adequate intake.
- Food allergies are less likely to develop in the
breastfed baby.
- The incidence of otitis media and upper
respiratory infections in the infant is reduced.
(Ricci, 10/2020)
3. Breastfeeding suggestions:
- Explain that breastfeeding is a learned skill for
both parties.
- Offer a thorough explanation of the actions
involved.
- Instruct the mother to wash her hands before
starting.
- Make sure the mother is comfortable (pain-free)
and not hungry.
- Tell the mother to start the feeding with an awake
and alert infant showing hunger signs.
- Assist the mother in positioning herself correctly
for comfort.
- Urge the mother to relax to encourage the let-
down reflex.
- Guide the mother’s hand to form a <C= to access
the breast with thumb on top and other four
fingers under the breast.
- Have the mother lightly tickle the infant’s upper
lip with her nipple to stimulate the infant to open
the mouth wide.
- Aid her in helping the infant latch on by bringing
the infant rapidly to the breast with a wide-open
mouth.
- Show her how to check that the newborn’s mouth
position is correct and tell her to listen for a
sucking noise.
