Sleeping through the night is not something that needs to be taught…. It’s a developmental milestone. Some babies will meet this milestone much earlier than others.
Positioning & Attachment
It is important to ensure that your baby is positioned and attached well throughout feeds so that your nipples don’t become sore and damaged.
Breastmilk supply
The fuller the breast, the slower the rate that it makes more milk. The more drained the breast, the faster the rate that more milk gets made.
Unsettled
If your baby is unsettled allowing them to comfort feed can help to give you both some much needed peace and quiet.
