Favourite Breastfeeding Position
Favourite Breastfeeding POsition
This was my favourite position for breastfeeding both my kiddos once we had the hang of breastfeeding. So please note that I did not start this until my babes were a couple months old. Breastfeeding took a bit of effort and sometimes to get a proper latch I just had to be in positions that weren't optimal.
I love bolsters for so many reasons but it really became my favourite place to sit during breastfeeding. This position can help place your spine in a nice neutral position while decreasing tension in the shoulders, low back as well as decreasing pressure on the pelvic floor.
Notes
- Sit on the bolster with the pressure on your sit bones
- This will place your knees higher than your hips and create a shelf to help support baby
- Position your ribs over your pelvis
- Make sure to keep your shoulders relaxed
