Recommended positions for breastfeeding

If you've decided to breastfeed your baby, here are some tips on how to get into positions that are comfortable for you and your baby:

• Place your arm on an armrest or pillow to help support your baby's weight.
• Choose the cradle hold position, where your baby is on your arm and his or her bottom is in your hand.
• You can also try the rugby ball position, where you hold your baby's head in the palm of your hand and his or her body extends along your forearm.
