Sometimes mothers find that although they feed their babies on time and at a fixed time every day, the babies seem not very happy every time they drink milk. They soon realize that the reason is that the babies cannot bite their mother's nipples, resulting in insufficient milk intake every time, and sometimes they become dry and not eat. What if the baby can't bite the nipple?
Some mothers have larger nipples, so after the baby is born, their mouth may not be as big and they may not be able to bite. A mother can actually buy a milking machine to squeeze her breast milk into a bottle and feed it to her baby. This should be a more feasible method, and the baby can also smoothly drink breast milk. As time goes by, the situation will improve.
Moreover, some babies are born with weaker abilities, so mothers should not worry because they cannot bite their nipples during a single feeding. Try feeding a few times to see when the distance between the baby and the nipple is sufficient for the baby to drink breast milk. After gradually adjusting, the baby can better adapt to the mother's nipple and drink milk more conveniently.
Choosing the right feeding position is also important. When a mother holds her baby and feeds, she should try to keep her body close to the baby. The baby can lean on the mother's body and put the nipple into the baby's mouth. Initially, the mother may need to assist and be careful not to press on the baby's nose, otherwise suffocation may occur.
