Breastfeeding your baby is the most natural approach to ensure he gets the
best start in life. It helps the two of you form a unique relationship and provides
your baby with all the nutrients and health benefits he will need in the first six
months of life and beyond.
It is quite common for you to feel anxious about breastfeeding as many women
have never seen a baby breastfeed before. You may have heard stories about
women who had a difficult time breastfeeding or who were unable to breastfeed
successfully. When it is going well breastfeeding is a comfortable and rewarding
experience and almost all women are able to produce all the breastmilk their baby
needs.
Breastfeeding is more likely to be successful if the baby is correctly attached to the
breast and allowed to feed whenever he wants to and for as long as he wants to.
In this film we hope to make you feel more confident about beastfeeding your
baby by explaining how to get off to a good start. The programme contains detailed
computer animation.
