Learn about various positions when breastfeeding and why a particular hold may work better for certain mothers and babies. Some mothers prefer the side lying hold, a nice restful position for mother and baby. Women & Infants Hospital supports breastfeeding because of the many health benefits it provides for both mother and baby. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends breastfeeding exclusively for the first six months. After the introduction of solid food, breastfeeding is recommended until the child is 12 months of age and may continue as long as both mother and baby desire. However, any time spent breastfeeding will benefit your baby.
