|Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on '''Football''' hold for breastfeeding.

|-
|00:06
|In this tutorial we will learn about- Choosing the correct breastfeeding hold for a mother and her baby

|-
| 00:15
| Mother’s preparation before breastfeeding and Step-by-step procedure for '''Football''' hold.

|-
|00:23
|Let us begin.

|-
| 00:24
|Across the world, mothers breastfeed their babies using various types of holds.

|-
| 00:31
|As explained in an earlier tutorial, The best breastfeeding hold for a mother and her baby is the one in which-

|-
| 00:41
| Both mother and baby are comfortable for the entire duration of breastfeeding

|-
| 00:48
| The baby is able to attach deeply to the mother’s breast . And get sufficient milk.

|-
| 00:56
| Let us learn about one of the holds called '''Football''' hold.

|-
| 01:01
|'''Football''' hold is especially useful if the mother: Has had a C-section delivery

|-
| 01:08
| Has large breasts

|-
| 01:10
| Has a small or premature baby or

|-
| 01:14
| Has twin babies.

|-
| 01:15
|Always remember- Before feeding her baby, a mother should wash and dry her hands properly.

|-
| 01:22
|Then she should drink a glass of boiled and cooled water.

|-
| 01:27
|Lactating mothers produce 750 to 850 millilitre of milk per day on an average.

|-
| 01:34
| Therefore, they need to increase their daily water intake.

|-
| 01:38
|Next, let’s discuss the position of the mother.

|-
| 01:43
|Mother should sit on the floor or on the bed in cross legged position.

|-
| 01:48
| Or on a chair with her feet flat on the ground.

|-
| 01:51
| If the chair is too high and her feet do not reach the floor then, she can rest her feet flat on a small stool or pillows kept on the floor.

|-
| 02:02
|While sitting, she should ensure that - Her back is straight so as to avoid back pain

|-
|02:09
| Her shoulders are relaxed and not elevated or curved

|-
| 02:13
| And this relaxed position is maintained throughout the feeding session.

|-
|02:19
| The mother should keep 3 to 4 pillows on the side of the breast which she will breastfeed from.

|-
| 02:26
|The topmost pillow should be placed diagonally over the other pillows and the mother’s thigh.

|-
| 02:32
| Then, Mother should uncover the breast from which she wants to feed the baby.

|-
| 02:38
| She should ensure not to put pressure of her bra or blouse on the breast.

|-
| 02:45
|After sitting comfortably, bring the baby to the mother.

|-
| 02:49
| The mother should place her baby’s back on the pillows.

|-
| 02:53
| She should hold her baby's head, using the hand on the same side of the breast that she will breastfeed from.

|-
| 03:01
| The baby’s legs should pass through the mother’s armpit of the same hand onto the pillow.

|-
| 03:08
| The mother should rest this hand and her baby’s legs on the pillows.

|-
| 03:13
| The mother in this picture will be feeding her baby from her right breast.

|-
| 03:18
| Therefore, the baby’s legs pass through the mother’s right armpit.

|-
| 03:23
| She is using the thumb and fingers of her right hand to hold the lower part of her baby’s head.

|-
| 03:31
|Remember, the mother should never bring the breast to the baby by bending her back.

|-
| 03:37
| This will make her uncomfortable and cause back pain.

|-
|03:42
| She should always keep her back straight and lift the baby to reach her breast.

|-
| 03:48
| Next, let us see the correct position of mother’s thumb and fingers for holding the baby’s head.

|-
| 03:56
| Mother’s thumb should be behind one ear, and rest of the fingers behind the other ear of the baby.

|-
| 04:03
|She should not move her fingers or thumb from behind the ear to the baby’s neck.

|-
| 04:09
|Her wrist should rest between the baby’s shoulder blades.

|-
| 04:13
| She should not apply pressure on the back of the baby’s head with her hand. This will keep the baby comfortable while feeding.

|-
| 04:23
| Next, let us learn how to position baby’s body correctly.

|-
| 04:27
| The baby’s face should be facing the mother.

|-
| 04:31
| Baby’s body should gently press against the mother’s body.

|-
| 04:36
| Lesser distance between their bodies will reduce the baby’s effort to reach the breast.

|-
| 04:41
| And it will become easier for the baby to attach deeply.

|-
| 04:47
|The second point in positioning is the baby’s body alignment.

|-
| 04:51
|When we eat food, our head, neck and body are always in the same direction.

|-
| 04:57
|Similarly- Baby’s head, neck and body should always be in the same direction while breastfeeding.

|-
|05:06
| This will make swallowing milk easier for the baby.

|-
| 05:10
|Now we come to the third point in positioning the baby’s body.

|-
| 05:16
| The mother should support the full body of her baby.

|-
| 05:22
| Otherwise the baby will have to take a lot of effort to attach deeply to the breast.

|-
| 05:30
|Next, let’s look at the position of baby’s nose and chin.

|-
| 05:34
| Baby’s nose should always be in line with the nipple.

|-
| 05:39
| And her chin should be forward and very close to the breast.

|-
| 05:44
| 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.

|-
|05:55
| Please note- '''Areola''' is the dark area around the nipple.

|-
| 06:00
|Now that the baby is positioned correctly, let us learn how to hold the breast.

|-
| 06:07
| Using the fingers of her other hand, the mother should cup her breast from the side in a '''C''' shape hold.

|-
| 06:15
| The mother in this picture will use her left hand to hold her right breast.

|-
|06:21
| To understand the correct position of thumb and fingers- Imagine the nipple to be the center of a clock on the right breast.

|-
| 06:30
| She should place her left thumb at 12’O clock position on this clock.

|-
| 06:35
| While her left index finger and middle finger should be placed at 6’O clock position.

|-
| 06:42
| The fingers should always be in the direction of the baby’s lips.

|-
| 06:47
|Why? Let’s understand this using a simple example.

|-
| 06:52
| When we eat a vada pav or burger, our lips open horizontally.

|-
| 06:58
| We hold the vada pav or burger horizontally to take a big bite.

|-
| 07:03
| Here, the thumb and fingers are placed in the direction of the lips.

|-
| 07:10
| If we hold the vada pav or burger vertically, we won’t be able to take a big bite.

|-
|07:16
| Similarly, observe the direction of the baby’s lips.

|-
| 07:21
| The lips are horizontal here.

|-
| 07:24
| Therefore, the fingers and thumb should also be positioned horizontally on the breast.

|-
| 07:32
| This will help the baby to take a big part of the lower '''areola''' in her mouth.

|-
| 07:39
|Apart from being in the direction of the baby’s lips, the mother’s thumb and fingers should always be at a distance of 3 fingers from the nipple.

|-
| 07:50
| Again, while eating a vada pav or burger, If we hold it too close, our fingers will block our mouth from taking a big bite.

|-
| 08:00
| If we hold it too far away, it will not be shaped correctly to fit in our mouth.

|-
| 08:07
| Therefore, we hold it at the right distance to take a big bite.

|-
| 08:13
|Similarly for the baby, the right distance is of 3 fingers from the nipple, as shown in this picture.

|-
|08:21
| This distance will ensure that- mother’s fingers do not block the baby from taking the lower '''areola''' in her mouth

|-
|08:31
| Mother does not compress only the nipple which will give very little milk

|-
| 08:36
| Mother compresses the larger milk ducts beneath the '''areola''' to express more milk out

|-
| 08:42
| And the breast is shaped correctly to help the baby attach deeply.

|-
|08:50
| Remember- Mother’s thumb should be on the upper side of the breast.

|-
| 08:55
| And her 2 fingers should be on the lower side of the breast, as shown in this picture.

|-
|09:01
| Let’s go back to the example of vada pav or burger.

|-
|09:06
| After holding the vada pav or burger correctly, we always compress it to take a big bite.

|-
| 09:12
| Similarly, the mother should lightly compress her breast in a '''C''' shape hold from the side.

|-
| 09:18
| This will help the baby to take a big part of the breast in her mouth.

|-
| 09:23
| But remember, Mother should not compress her breast in a scissor shape hold.

|-
| 09:30
| Scissor shape compression will pinch the breast and cause nipple feeding.

|-
| 09:36
| Also make sure that there is equal compression of the breast with the thumb and the fingers.

|-
| 09:43
| Otherwise, the nipple will shift either in the upward or downward direction and lead to poor attachment.

|-
| 09:51
| Sometimes, the mother might prefer to hold her baby in a different position.

|-
| 09:56
| In this picture, the baby is not facing the mother.

|-
| 10:00
| Baby’s head is brought towards the breast from the side of the breast and not from below.

|-
| 10:07
| Baby’s lips are vertical here. Therefore, the mother should position her fingers vertically on the breast in a '''U''' shape hold.

|-
| 10:17
| Remember, For any breastfeeding position mother’s fingers and thumb- holding the breast, should always be in the direction of the baby’s lips.

|-
| 10:28
| Now, the baby is in '''Football''' hold and ready to latch on for breastfeeding.

|-
| 10:34
| The correct latching technique is explained in another tutorial in the same series.

|-
| 10:41
| Once the baby is latched on correctly and if the breast is not too big and heavy then- the mother can release the breast from her hand and keep that hand free.

|-
| 10:53
| This brings us to the end of this tutorial.

|-
| 10:57
| In this tutorial we learnt about, Choosing the correct breastfeeding hold for a mother and her baby
