Nursing Frequently | Secrets to Successful Breastfeeding

Lactation Consultant explains the #1 key to success - babies need to breastfeed at least 8-12 times per 24 hours.

Ignoring early feeding cues and/or letting a baby skip feeds (for example, at night) leads to slow growth and low milk supply, the most frequently cited reason women stop breastfeeding sooner than they planned.
