It’s a GREAT idea to take a simple and affordable breastfeeding class. Breastfeeding is something you need to LEARN to do.

The Ultimate Breastfeeding Class is on-demand and perfect for new moms.

How do I know when my baby is finished on the First side?

Feed on the first side until your baby DOES a couple OF THE FOLLOWING:

• stops suckling

• appears relaxed and calm (maybe sleepy)

• has relaxed hands (not in a fist anymore)

• is not restless and has decreased movements

• has long pauses between suckling

• unlatches themselves

 When they finish the first side, offer the other breast.  If they take it, great!  If not, offer that breast at the next breastfeeding session.  Always alternate the side you start with.
 

How long should I breastfeed my newborn each time?

For newborns, you want to make sure the baby is feeding at least 20-30 minutes (at least 10-15 minutes each side) to ensure they’re getting enough breast milk.
