 Hello everyone, so now we are going to discuss about sideline hold, now I really like sideline hold also besides cross cradle hold because you know when you go in the hospital lot of this mothers you know have had C-section, in fact the Z-section has the rate has gone up remarkably, so many mothers have Z-section and you know many mothers they had stitches even with the general delivery and they are in pain sometimes they are tired you know, so I do not insist that on day one that mother has to learn cross cradle you know cross cradle yes cross cradle need to be learnt before they go home you know because it is a little bit kind of little bit more difficult this thing but once mother understand what to do is they love that cross cradle hold. But in sideline hold again the concept is same where mother is sleeping and mother is on the side, so she is sleeping on the side and then baby is basically being brought you know in again in this position, so here mother is sleeping and baby is coming literally in this position, so again remember the concept put the baby little bit lower down not right not facing so that the neck is little bit extended forward because if you bring the baby directly on the breast on the nipple then what will happen the neck will be straight and again with neck straight it will be difficult to swallow again when you try to swallow in the neck is straight it will be little bit difficult, so try to kind of extend the neck, so in that position you want to make sure that you know baby is kind of little bit downward you know keep the pull the baby is like little bit downward and then extend the neck little bit and the same way you have to figure out whether baby is upper lip and lower lip and you tell the mother to kind of you know press the breast in that direction where the lips are okay and then in side line hold actually if you look at the video we have shown that first what hand to use then what hand to use then in that sleeping position where should this hand should go what should be the angle over here you know how mother should support baby is back all the step by step we have taught, so side line hold do watch it 2-3 times because you know it is kind of little bit tricky you know and we have made it kind of point by point so that you know mothers don't miss any important aspect okay, so thank you so much and enjoy. Welcome to the spoken tutorial on side line hold for breastfeeding in this tutorial we will learn choosing the correct breastfeeding hold for a mother and her baby mother's preparation before breastfeeding and how to do the side line hold let us begin across the world mothers breastfeed their babies using various types of holds as discussed in an earlier tutorial the best breastfeeding hold for a mother and her baby is the one in which both mother and baby are comfortable for the entire duration of breastfeeding the baby is able to attach deeply to the mother's breast and get sufficient milk let us learn about a new hold called the side line hold this hold is recommended when the mother is breastfeeding at night or when the mother has had a caesarean section delivery or when the mother is tired before feeding her baby the mother must wash her hands with soap and water and dry her hands properly then she should drink a glass of boiled and cold water lactating mothers produce 750 to 850 millilitres of milk per day on an average therefore they need to increase their daily water intake next mother should uncover the breast from which she wants to feed the baby she should ensure not to put pressure of her bra or blouse on the breast next the mother should lie down comfortably on the side of the breast that she will feed from she should keep a pillow under her head and a pillow between her legs to avoid rolling over in her sleep the mother in this picture will be feeding her baby from her right breast therefore she is lying on her right side next let us learn how to position baby's body correctly place the baby on her side such that her stomach is gently pressed by the mother's body the mother should support her baby's back with the hand on the side that she is lying on the mother in this picture is supporting her baby's back with her right hand the mother can place up below behind her baby's back to hold her close to her body lesser distance between their bodies will reduce the baby's effort to reach the breast and it will become easier for the baby to attach deeply to the breast remember the mother should never bring the breast to the baby by bending her back this will increase the distance between the baby's stomach and mother's body she should always keep her back straight and bring the baby to her breast the second important point is the direction in which the baby's entire body is held you may have noticed that when we eat food our head neck and body are always in the same direction similarly baby's head neck and body should always be in the same direction while breastfeeding this will make swallowing milk easier for the baby now we come to the third point in positioning the baby's body mother should support the baby's back with her hand otherwise the baby will have to take a lot of effort to attach deeply to the breast next let's look at the position of the baby's nose and chin baby's nose should be in line with the nipple and her chin should be forward and very close to the breast this will ensure that the baby takes in more of the lower part of the areola while latching and therefore will use the lower jaw to drink more milk efficiently please note areola is the dark area around the nipple now that the baby is held correctly let us learn how to hold the breast using the fingers of the hand that is free the mother should cup her breast from the side in a C-shape hold the mother in this picture will use her left hand to hold her right breast the fingers holding the breast should always be in the direction of the baby's lips why let's understand this using a simple example when we eat a vadapa or burger our lips open horizontally we hold the vadapa or burger horizontally to take a big bite here the thumb and fingers are placed in the direction of the lips if we hold the vadapa or burger vertically we won't be able to take a big bite similarly observe the direction of the baby's lips the lips are horizontal here therefore mother's fingers and thumb should also be placed horizontally on the breast this will help the baby to take a big part of the lower areola in her mouth in addition to being in the direction of the baby's lips mother's thumb and fingers should always be at a distance of three fingers from the nipple again while eating a vadapa or burger if we hold it too close our fingers will block our mouth from taking a big bite if we hold it too far away it will not be shaped correctly to fit in our mouth therefore we hold it at the right distance to take a big bite similarly for the baby the right distance is of three fingers from the nipple as shown in this picture this distance will ensure that mother's fingers do not block the baby from taking the lower areola in her mouth mother does not compress only the nipple which will give very little milk mother compresses the larger milk tucks beneath the areola to express more milk out and the breast is shaped correctly to help the baby attach deeply let's go back to the example of vadapa or burger after holding the vadapa or burger correctly we always press it to take a big bite similarly the mother should lightly press her breast in a C shape hold from the side this will help the baby to take a big part of the breast in her mouth but remember mother should not press her breast in a Caesar shape hold Caesar shape compression will pinch the breast and cause nipple feeding also make sure that there is equal compression of the breast with the thumb and the fingers otherwise the nipple will shift either in the upward or downward direction and the baby will not be able to attach deeply to the breast now the baby is in the sideline hold and ready to attach to the breast for breastfeeding correct attachment of the baby to the breast is explained in another video in the same series as soon as the baby is attached deeply to the breast mother should release the breast from her hand she should use this hand to hold the baby's back and keep the baby close to her body also she should move her other arm from the baby's back and keep it at 90 degrees to her body she should bend the elbow of that arm then she should tuck that hand under the pillow the mother in this picture has released her right breast from her left hand she is using her left hand to hold the baby's back and keep the baby close to her body she has moved her right hand from the baby's back she has kept it at 90 degrees to her body her right elbow is bent her right hand is tucked under the pillow after feeding from the first breast if the mother wants to feed from her other breast then she will have to lie down on the other side the mother in this picture has turned to her left side to feed from her left breast this brings us to the end of this tutorial hello everyone so now we are going to discuss about laid-back hold many mothers they like laid-back hold and this are the mothers who have kind of access to privacy they have you know say reclining chairs they have a lot of these gadgets you know where they can kind of use to kind of make or feel comfortable so in some time you know what happens is mothers are really tired so we do recommend laid-back hold you know if mothers are tired and they want to relax so in that laid-back hold what we do we tell mothers to basically you know to take a reclining chair or even the bed she can put two or three pillows or even those round pillows and then she can basically relax okay like this not completely recline completely kind of in a back supine position but more in a reclining position and then baby can come on her you know this way in this position this is called laid-back hold and then you know similar concept of babies coming straight on just like a football hole but in football hole baby was kind of held under the armpit here baby is you know kind of resting on mother's body and just make sure that the nose is not higher up on the nipple just a little bit lower and in this position what happens is you know because you know the gravity helps so baby automatically opens a big mouth okay so because babies mother is much more laid down than what I am in this position and because she babies kind of downwards right so automatically baby opens a big mouth and have a good latch you don't even have to hold the breast if you want to hold the breast that's fine but many times and even if you don't hold that gravity really helps baby to open the mouth and a good lower in a latch okay so this is your laid-back hold and do remember to understand the concept of how to kind of you know bring the baby extend the neck all those important points and thank you so much.
