1. To avoid such problems when feeding, correctly attach the baby to the breast. To do this, tightly squeeze his tummy to itself so that the nipple was at the level of the spout. Keep the chest hand: the thumb should be on top, and all the others to be on the bottom (the index should be from the nipple not closer than 5 inches) parallel to the bottom of the sponge baby. Wait until the kid widely opens a mouth, and aim the nipple at the sky (up). You need to at the same time and he and the areola was deep in his mouth of the crumbs from the bottom more than the top.
