• Prevent sore nipples by learning how to position your baby and help them to latch on correctly.
• Learn how to hand express early milk onto a spoon for your baby to bring in a good milk supply and is a “must-learn” for the mother who becomes engorged.

Breastfeeding Management, Educational Tools for Physicians and Other Professionals (Runtime 35 Min.)
Rated by Faculty and Residents as the most useful set of teaching tools used in the American Academy of Pediatrics’ Breastfeeding Curriculum.
While there are many effective styles and approaches to teaching breastfeeding, the following tools serve as a start for the professional developing his/her own style:
• 15 Minutes of Breastfeeding Help was designed to help professionals think of how to structure a patient session efficiently, given that time constraints are such a reality.
• Early Hand Expression with Teaching Steps is a detailed example of how to teach a new mother hand expression. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends this technique be taught to all new breastfeeding mothers.
• Maximizing Milk Production with Hands-on Pumping Mothers who are separated from their babies make more milk when they do not rely only on the suction of a breast pump to express. New research supports simple manual techniques, combined with pumping.
