Narration
00:00 Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on Cradle hold for breastfeeding.
00:06 In this tutorial, we will learn about-
00:09 choosing the correct breastfeeding hold for a mother and her baby,
00:15 mother’s preparation before breastfeeding and
00:18 how to do the Cradle hold.
00:22 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

00:39 both mother and baby are comfortable for the entire duration of breastfeeding.
00:45 The baby is able to attach deeply to the mother’s breast
00:50 and get sufficient milk.
00:54 Let us learn about one of the holds called Cradle hold.
00:59 Before feeding her baby, the mother must wash her hands with soap and water
01:05 and dry her hands properly.
01:10 Then she should drink a glass of boiled and cooled water.
01:15 Lactating mothers produce 750 to 850 milliliters of milk per day on an average.
01:22 Therefore, they need to increase their daily water intake.
01:27 Next, let’s discuss the position of the mother.
01:31 Mother should sit on the floor or on the bed in cross-legged position.
01:36 Or on a chair with her feet flat on the ground.
01:41 If the chair is too high and her feet do not reach the floor then
01:47 she can rest her feet flat on a small stool or pillows kept on the floor.
01:53 While sitting, she should ensure that -

her back is straight so as to avoid back pain,

02:00 her shoulders are relaxed and not elevated or curved.
02:05 And, this relaxed position is maintained throughout the breastfeeding session.
02:12 Now, the mother should uncover the breast from which she wants to feed the baby.
02:18 She should ensure not to put pressure of her bra or blouse on the breast.
02:25 After sitting comfortably, bring the baby to the mother.
02:29 Mother should hold her baby with the arm on the same side of the breast that she will feed from.
02:37 Baby’s head should rest comfortably in the inner bend of the elbow of that arm.
02:44 With the same arm, mother should support the head, neck and torso of her baby.
02:51 The mother in this picture, will feed the baby from her right breast.
02:56 Therefore, she is using her right arm to support the baby’s head, neck and torso and
03:05 the baby’s head is resting in the inner bend of her right elbow.
03:10 If the mother wants additional support to lift the baby, she can keep a pillow under the baby on her lap.
03:19 Remember, the mother should never bring the breast to the baby by bending her back.
03:25 This will make her uncomfortable and cause back pain.
03:30 She should always keep her back straight and lift the baby to reach her breast.
03:36 Next, let us learn how to position baby’s body correctly.
03:42 The baby’s stomach should be gently pressed by the mother’s body.
03:47 Lesser distance between their bodies will reduce the baby’s effort to reach the breast.
03:54 And it will become easier for the baby to attach deeply.
04:00 Then, the second important point is the direction in which the baby’s entire body is held.
04:08 You may have noticed that when we eat food, our head, neck and body are always in the same direction.
04:16 But, while breastfeeding, the baby’s head is often turned sideways by many mothers.
04:23 This will make feeding uncomfortable for the baby.
04:28 Baby’s head, neck and body should always be in the same direction while breastfeeding.
04:35 This will make swallowing milk easier for the baby.
04:41 Now we come to the third point in positioning the baby’s body.
04:46 The mother should support the head, neck and torso of her baby.
04:51 Otherwise the baby will have to take a lot of effort to attach deeply to the breast.
04:58 Next, let’s look at the position of the baby’s nose and chin.
05:03 Baby’s nose should be in line with the nipple.
05:07 And her chin should be forward and very close to the breast.
05:12 This will ensure that the baby takes in more of the lower part of the areola while latching
05:19 and therefore, will use the lower jaw to drink more milk efficiently.
05:26 Please note - Areola is the dark area around the nipple.
05:32 Now that the baby is positioned correctly,
05:35 let us learn, how to hold the breast.
05:39 Using the fingers of the hand that is free, the mother should cup her breast in a U shape hold from the top.
05:48 The mother in this picture will use her left hand to hold her right breast.
05:55 To understand the correct position of thumb and fingers, imagine the nipple to be the center of a clock on the mother’s right breast.
06:04 Mother should place her left thumb at 3’O clock position on this clock
06:10 while her left index finger and middle finger should be placed at 9’O clock position.
06:18 Mother’s fingers holding the breast should always be in the direction of the baby’s lips.
06:25 Why?

Let’s understand this using a simple example.

06:30 When we eat a vada-pav or burger, our lips open horizontally.
06:35 We hold the vada-pav or burger horizontally to take a big bite.
06:40 Here, the thumb and fingers are placed in the direction of the lips.
06:46 If we hold the vada-pav or burger vertically, we won’t be able to take a big bite.
06:53 Similarly, observe the direction of baby’s lips. The lips are vertical here.
07:00 Therefore, the fingers and thumb should also be placed vertically on the breast.
07:06 This will help the baby to take a big part of the lower areola in her mouth.
07:13 In addition to being in the direction of the baby’s lips, mother’s thumb and fingers should always be at a distance of 3 fingers from the nipple.
07:23 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.
07:34 If we hold it too far away, it will not be shaped correctly to fit in our mouth.
07:41 Therefore, we hold it at the right distance to take a big bite.
07:47 Similarly for the baby, the right distance is of 3 fingers from the nipple, as shown in this picture.
07:55 This distance will ensure that-

mother’s fingers do not block the baby from taking a big part of the areola in her mouth,

08:05 mother does not compress only the nipple which will give very little milk,
08:11 mother compresses the larger milk-ducts beneath the areola to express more milk out,
08:17 and the breast is shaped correctly to help the baby attach deeply.
08:23 Remember - mother’s thumb should be on the side of the breast where the baby’s chin is present.
08:29 And, her 2 fingers should be on the side of the breast where baby’s nose is present.
08:36 Let’s go back to the example of vada-pav or burger.
08:41 After holding the vada-pav or burger correctly, we always press it to take a big bite.
08:48 Similarly, the mother should lightly press her breast in a U shape hold from the top.
08:54 This will help the baby to take a big part of the lower areola in her mouth.
09:01 But remember, mother should not press her breast in an inverted V shape hold.
09:07 V shape compression will pinch the breast and cause nipple feeding.
09:13 Also make sure that there is equal compression of the breast with the thumb and the fingers.
09:21 Otherwise, the nipple will shift either to the right or the left side
09:27 and the baby will not be able to attach deeply to the breast.
09:32 Remember, never bring the breast to the baby by pushing it sideways towards the baby.
09:39 Always bring the baby towards the breast.
09:43 Now, the baby is in Cradle hold and ready to attach to the breast for breastfeeding.
09:49 Correct attachment of the baby to the breast is explained in another video in the same series.
09:58 As soon as the baby is attached deeply to the breast and if the breast is not too heavy then
10:05 mother should release her breast from her hand
10:08 and bring that hand underneath the baby for support.
10:14 In this position, mother should bring both her arms very close to her body.
10:20 This will keep her comfortable during breastfeeding.
10:25 This brings us to the end of this tutorial.

Thank you for joining.
