Side lying Breastfeeding How To

[@bree_wolf]

This is my second visit to this tutorial in 2 years. I struggled with the same issues with my third born as my second and literally dug through 2 years worth of "watch history" to find this and the "deep latch" video, that's how big of an impact they had the first time. As expected, my breast feeding issues are no more, you literally saved my sanity and breast feeding journey twice now. Thank you!

[@Elohist4life]

When I came across your video today....I was searching for anything to help me and this video has changed me and my newborn's life INSTANTLY 🙌🏽! My nipples have been so sore that they felt raw despite using the best organic nipple creams and trying to ensure proper latch. My newborn was not opening her mouth wide enough to latch deeply. I felt like giving up and just do formula feed, but I put this breastfeeding method into practice right away and it worked like magic. My baby and I both were the most relaxed that we have ever been since coming from the hospital by using this method. It was painless. My baby is 5 weeks now and I have huge breasts.... So for the moms that may be struggling please try this method and I hope it works just as well for you! Happy feeding and resting! 🤗👌🏽🙏🏽🙌🏽 😴❤️

[@alamanynaa]

I am just like you .. is there is any other positions for big breast mum's to make the breast feeding experience more easy.. and if you have tips and advice

[@ShaliniBothra]

Same situation for me! Big breasts make it so hard to try this position. Shall try again with this advice.

[@kritika462]

any let down issue from the other breast( on top)? do we have to have a something there to catch but then it may hurt baby?

[@vasanthi5825]

No cream reduce nipple crack... In any position u just insert areola fully inside babies mouth... I have worst nipple crak until 2months of postpartum with my first baby but now it's my 38th day of postpartum with second no crack pain and struggles... Yes i have pain in first week but now correct latching heald every thing...

[@loganthompson5374]

This is so great! I have been side lying nursing but not super comfortably. This helps a lot!!

[@pearbacke5421]

Thank you for this video! It is one of the main reasons why my daughter and I managed to breastfeed comfortably after a difficult start and weeks of struggling. At two months, she would already roll towards me when we lay down, so it not only helped us feed more relaxed and without back pain but also helped her motor development!

[@axyridis9436]

You angel 😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I tried before your video and couldn't get it but I just followed your instructions and got it first go. I can't express the complete relief

[@teejay8025]

A nurse taught me this and I am so grateful to her. I was able to finally rest and recover. Thank you for confirming that this is a safe method

[@NancyKralova]

I got this recommended now while I'm feeding my daughter in this position so I at lease double-checked if I'm doing it right. I learned few new tips how to do it better and fixed it straight away. thank you ^^

[@MariamMarimat]

Omg 😱 this was soo helpful for the pass two weeks now I have been waking up and breastfeeding my son each time wen he wakes up, I literally just try this and it worked 😢thank you so much

[@TamiShey]

Thank you for sharing this helped me a lot so now I can relax while breastfeeding or if you have stitches down there this is a great option .

[@NurseGotGlow]

I am 35weeks pregnant.. and im so glad i found your videos! I'm also a nurse but still don't know what to do EXACTLY step by step for a good deep latch ... so thank you so much for sharing your knowledge... 😌 I pray that me and my baby girl will have successful bf sessions.. 😌🙏🏻💕

[@bigbanktai8204]

Omg this really helped me and my newborn if you have very large breasts like myself this is a lifesaver !!

[@effiezzy]

Yay

[@naomyogarah549]

Thanks for the video. You have saved my back from aching due to prolonged late night breastfeeding. Now my baby can latch comfortably as I enjoy the breastfeeding process

[@JessicaIsAVegan]

This video is so helpful! Thank you. Especially the tip for what to do if you wanna switch sides but not disturb your partner. I would've never thought of just laying with my head at the foot of the bed lol

[@xeniadelsol]

8 years later and this video is still a treasure. I do side lying breastfeading, but it's hit and miss most of the times. By now I have figured it out more or less, but it's still not a comfortable position to be in. In my country bed-sharing and nursing lying down is actually encouraged, because apparently babies sleep more soundly as they feel safer and they grow up to be less anxious. of course taking all safety percausions.

[@ilechukwunkechifavour5876]

😊

[@JillianGuinta]

This was an excellent video and so helpful! I especially appreciated your analogies “like a baby bird” and “like a drawbridge.” They really helped illustrate your point. Hopefully, we will be able to land at this technique soon.

[@apinder53]

For women with larger, longer, or looser breast, you can do side lying from the top breast with babies head on your arm.

[@PushaJerry]

Nice method. Will definitely try. Just one question. We still have to get up to pat the baby in order to make his/her Burp right? Or can we pat when the baby is in side lying position? I'm confused

[@crisleenmayliwanag2116]

OMG thanks for sharing this. Gladly I am doing the things you mentioned in this video atleast 90% correct unconsciously. Will make sure to do have it 100% correct since I’ve learned good tips from this vid.

Second baby! I remember watching this video years ago with my first and it's come in as a handy reminder again now. It makes such a difference to be able to nurse like this! I wake up most mornings feeling fresh even with a 3 week old!

[@maycee4888]

Do you burp your baby after feeding in this position?

[@zoesee9109]

​@@maycee4888yes I need to know this too. Should I be getting up after and burp her or is it fine to not burp?

[@maycee4888]

@@zoesee9109 my baby is almost 3months now and what ive learned so far is that he will awaken after a few minutes because of trapped air anyway if i dont burp him immediately. So i getup and try to get a burp every feeding especially on the first month. Later on i became a little bit lenient since he seems to manage fine without burp every single night feed already when he reached two months. But i still most of the time burp him every feed

[@walidawaziri4593]

⁠@@zoesee9109 no you don’t need to burp your baby if you side line breastfeed.

[@walidawaziri4593]

@@maycee4888 no. No need. They’ll burp naturally own their own.

Incredibly helpful video! Question: now at six months my baby's arms are getting in the way. Too long to keep under the breast comfortably without a little elbow in my ribs, but with arms in between us, we often get a shallow latch. Any advice?

[@elaineq9565]

Your baby's arms should hug the breast

[@SanziasDiary]

Thanks for the video. And Can i use pillow under baby's Head? Bcz my baby is suffering from colic problem.

NEVER should there be a pillow around baby's head or face. Please research "James McKenna co-sleeping safety" for lots of details on how to set up the bedding safely

Hi! Great video. I am a lactation professional. Can you please tell me which doll are you using?

I got it at babies R Us ages ago before they closed... I refused to pay $100 for an official teaching model ( they aren't very nice anyway) Search online for a realistic newborn 20 inch doll...

[@MrsLG2010]

Mom of 5 here with a tip. Put a bed rail on mom’s side of the bed so baby can safely sleep on either side of mom.

[@wagonbirdbf]

Yes! And pack the crack with a rolled up blanket 👍

[@mariyahyisrael5598]

Thanks

[@galenas564]

I would recommend the top of bed bedrail style - they clamp right on top of the bed so there is no gap. The other kind are only rated for safety with toddlers as you can lean on them and increase the gap which is a trap hazard. Babies under 4 months should only be on the side of the mom so you can feed with the top boob or flip in the bed or stay awake to roll them back. After 4-6 months it is safe to leave them in the middle with blankets to the waist and no pillows near the baby.

[@ashicaalisha791]

can u reccommend me one plz , i can only find toddler ones online @@galenas564

[@fatinsyahira4641]

Do we need to put pillow for the baby’s head?

[@wagonbirdbf]

It is very important to NOT put a pilllow. Pillows are a suffocation hazard around baby's face. For more info check this link: cosleeping.nd.edu/safe-co-sleeping-guidelines/

[@aic3968]

I should've watch this before doing this position. My back is sore from side lying position and my baby seemed curved and not looking up. Will definitely try this

[@savaynerjuma3934]

Thanks for this lesson

[@alenakozyreva8681]

My baby won't lift his head up higher to find the nipple. He just latches on to where he can reach, usually just below my nipple and starts sucking until i pull him off. I can't get the nipple into his mouth for the life of me. Just when he latches by himself and that ends up too shallow. Any ideas?

How do you burp your baby or if you fall asleep and try to burp him or she after side breastfeeding??

[@MrsMehra-or6jr]

With my common sense I always do the same And trust me I never watched your video before..

[@wagonbirdbf]

Yes, most people do this, in America it is a lost skill sadly. it's the way to go! very natural

[@itsmariel.a]

Do you burp after feeding baby like this? Also, is it ok for them to sleep right away on this position and not eventually get a reflux?

[@wagonbirdbf]

Burping is a comfort measure that was invented for bottle feeding babies. I would NEVER wake a happy sleeping baby to burp them 🙂. Reflux is an overdiagnosed and overmedicated condition in my opinion. Symptoms can generally be resolved with an appropriate, good quality infant probiotic containing the right strains. For more info on this, search for the KZbin video: NPR microbiome

[@wagonbirdbf]

No one worries about other mammals getting reflux... Puppies, kittens and every animal lay on their side with their mother to feed. This is a very western idea. To not allow lying down feeding

[@itsmariel.a]

I appreciate your response! Means a lot! I don’t always have her burp when I breastfeed her but when she’s taking the bottle I do. I just recently figured out how to do side lying breastfeeding so I was concern if that’s ok to leave her laying after she nurses.

[@Rimikhan]

I wanted to ask the same. Thank you 💓

[@jingh8298]

I don’t think that we don’t need to do burp our babies after breastfeeding. Because my baby would anyways have air and need to burp it out after I breastfeed it, it happens so sometimes, but not at each time.

Thank you so much for this information it’s is informative & so much easier but if I fall asleep how does the baby get to burp after feeding while am asleep ? This my question am a new mother

[@Mr3kiwis]

For most breastfed babies, they don't need to be burped at night as being drowsy, they feed more gently and don't take in much air.

Not only is this a very comfortable option, but for my baby, it reduced the amount of gas he had significantly. He would constantly cry and push in pain trying to get trapped gas out, but when I switched to side lying position, he rarely is in pain.

[@chatgpt4135]

Side laying is a natural and most frequent position to breastfeed for mother dogs, cats and other lower animals too cos in this position both mom n baby r in relaxed side laying position reducing exhaustion, strain on body n even gas Side laying reduce nipple pain too

[@maycee4888]

I have a 4 week baby and this is what i am really worried about so i dont breastfeed my baby in this position. Glad to see this!

[@eileenmdaily]

Thank you for this video, its very reassuring and informative - my baby is 6 days old and is feeding up to twice an hour throughout the night (basically constantly!) i tried side lying last night and it was really good but both me and the baby would fall asleep after every feed and she would end up sleeping on her side - in the sleep safety you say they should be sleeping on their backs - is it safe for her to sleep on her side or is there a way she could flop onto her back naturally after feeding? Thanks again! Eileen

[@_justjerika]

My newborn sleeps on her side. Even when I put her on her back, she goes back to her side. So when I lay and feed, I usually fall asleep and she’s still on her side when I wake up. I guess that’s just how she likes to sleep.

[@flexmaster2009]

My son is two weeks and sleep on his side. I wouldn't leave him unattended on his side but I'm normally right beside him so he can't roll any further

My baby Sweat alot from his head daily Is it dangerous ?shall I need visit doctor for checkup?

[@wagonbirdbf]

Sweating in babies is common. Do not overdress or overblanket the baby. Dress the baby the same way you are dressed, but if you go outside, add a hat. You will actually protect the baby's life by not overdressing the baby. Cool cloths can help. If he is making lots of wet diapers every day, with nice clear yellow urine, he is well hydrated. Watch for concentrated diapers. Many babies sweat, and it's ok

[@jingh8298]

Hi my newborn is 4 months old, he likes watching at me while i‘m breastfeeding him, that’s very nice and most of the time he smiles at me and doesn’t continue drinking the milk🥰. How do you professionally call this phenomenon at this period of a newborn baby:)?

If he stops suckling but the mouth is still on the breast rub the crown of his head, it will stimulate him to continue suckling.
