Your milk will not flow easily and this will distress both the baby and you . During the first few days you may not be able to sit up and it is also not necessary. Lie on your side with the baby’s head raised on your arm.
With your other hand hold your breast between your index finger and middle finger lightly to help the baby get a good hold on your nipple and also to ensure that his nose is free to breathe and is not smothered by your breast.
When you can sit up again you will find that position easier for feeding. Again support his head with one arm and hold your breast with the fingers of the other hand. Feed the baby first on one breast and let him empty it before giving him the other breast. At his next feed give him the second breast first so that one breast is well emptied at each feed. If you make sure that your breast is well emptied in this way you will surely have enough milk for the baby. Viajes y turismo
