Latch, Let’s Get Comfortable Sheila Britt-Smith M.Ed, RD, IBCLC

Breastfeeding Through History Dr. William Cadogan An Essay Upon Nursing, 1748: “It is with great pleasure I see at last the preservation of children become the care of men of sense. In my opinion, this business has been too long fatally left to the management of women, who cannot be supposed to have proper knowledge to fit them for such a task, notwithstanding they look upon it to be their own province.”

Sir Frederick Truby King 1924 report: “Just as the whole subject of Mothercraft does not come by instinct to a woman the moment she becomes a mother, but has to be studied, so does breast-feeding require thoughtful study and competent management if it is to be a success.”

“There can be no doubt in the minds of those taking care of modern Western European and American women … that instinct does not inform the mother how to feed her first baby … which is all the more remarkable since labor which is part of the same job is more effectively compulsive. “ Mavis Gunther, English obstetrician

Today

Biological Nurturing “A collective term for mother baby states and positions that interrelate and interact to release primitive neonatal reflexes and spontaneous maternal breastfeeding behaviors.”

Biological Nurturing Instinctual breastfeeding A proactive, mother centered approach Comfort is priority

Laid-back Breastfeeding In 2008 Suzanne Colson PhD, Msc, Midwife, Nurse introduced the term

From GOLD Midwifery on Twitter 2018

Mother’s Posture Baby’s Posture Positions M -Relaxation releases oxytocin; reduced muscle fatigue for mother; increased joy B – use of gravity to help with latch

Mom’s back is supported by bed/chair/sofa The position that works best ensures comfortable baby gazing and/or baby’s eyes to sleep BN gives infant constant tummy pressure Movement from infant’s body brushing releases the infant’s inborn reflexes

Skin-to-Skin

Mechanism of Biological Nurturing Mothers: Laid-Back Sitting postures Open the mother’s body Increase her torso dimensions Make the body region between sternum and pubis available to her baby Optimize comfortable baby gazing and eye-to-eye contact

Mechanism of Biological Nurturing Gravity Pins baby to mother’s body Reduces intensity & amplitude of PNRs Frees mother’s hands to groom & stroke her baby

Mechanism of Biological Nurturing Babies: Ventral Positions Species-specific to quadrupeds No back, head, or neck pressure required Multidirectional approach to mum’s breast Babies lie around the breast like the hands of a clock, increasing the number of positions Promote continuity in positional lie and attitude from womb to world Normalize longitudinal and oblique lies Close constant ventral contact smooths movement & releases PNRs enabling locomotion Work with (not against) gravity

Mechanism of Biological Nurturing Baby Gazing and Eye-To-Eye Contact Promote postnatal continuity of oxytocin from pregnancy & labor Increase maternal oxytocin pulsatility

Mechanism of Biological Nurturing High Oxytocin Pulsatility Releases mothers’ breastfeeding instincts Promotes spontaneous mothering behaviors protecting baby’s breathing, warmth, and sleep

Mechanism of Biological Nurturing Biological Nurturing is proactive. Mothers take the lead; they hold their sleeping babies during the early days Keeps baby at the right address Reduces crying Mothers get to know their babies sooner, boosting confidence Reduces intensity and amplitude of PNR expression Promotes spontaneous latch in REM & drowsy sleep states Increases breastfeeding frequency mimicking womb feeding aiding metabolic adaptation Gives mothers time to sort latching difficulties or sore nipples REM states optimize brain development & early learning, therefore babies coordinate sucking with swallowing & breathing earlier.

A Good Fit Traditional Latch

A Good Fit Latching that takes into consideration fetal attitude in utero

The 3 C’s The 3 C’s of Childbirth in the 1990’s: Choice Continuity Control Today, postnatal care remains the “Cinderella” of midwifery care. In view of statistics of breastfeeding continuance, biological nurturing research suggests that it’s time to apply the 3 C’s to postnatal care as well
