Support and Guidance
If this is your first baby, it may be overwhelming, you are now not only looking after yourself, but another too. There are many worries and questions that come with it. Early feeds and skin to skin can be beneficial for both mum and baby. Breast feeding helps the uterus to contract and your pre-pregnancy shape to return. The first milk (colostrum) is thicker and rich in antioxidants and by day 5 you will see a change to thinner white milk the "baby blues" may kick in as your hormones adjust to the growing demands of your baby.
Breast Milk
Getting these first feeds right with proper positioning and a good latch can make all the difference to your baby's and your feeding experience. Knowing when the baby is sleeping or just controlling the flow is important to be aware of, the online package covers this.
Formula Milk
There are many different formula milks on the market, even some which are ready made. Similarly there are many different teats with variations of flow. This can all seem a bit daunting and is covered in the online package.
