Project Description
Good attachment will help a baby get more milk and make breastfeeding more comfortable. This video shows why good attachment is so important to breastfeeding success and what a mother can do to deeply attach her baby to her breast.
This was a very informative video! I wish I had seen this when I was having trouble with my son’s weight gain due to his lip tie. Thank you!
This was the best breastfeeding video I’ve ever seen!
This is an amazing breastfeeding video! I work with breastfeeding moms and I’m going to have them watch it too!
This is now my new favorite video to show mothers during my breastfeeding education classes. Everything from the soothing voice of the narrator, to the slow motion latching shots to the content itself, this video has it all for discussing baby’s latch.
I hope to help this organization out more someday but in the meantime, I will share the videos when I can!
Thank you for all you do, GHM!
Great video scenes and sequences, but just one comment. Hyper-extension of the baby’s head can cause difficulty swallowing (try it with a cuppa yourself) and just at the end of the first baby sequence around 5mins in, I thought that the head was really falling too far back for effective feeding. A little bit of support at the base of the head to keep the head in the erect but not hyper-extended position was needed, and the mother probably gave it just as the shot ended. But otherwise, well done, and I’ll bookmark it and use it. We’ve come a long way since I had to write Breastfeeding Matters in 1984! Keep up the good work.
Wow, such a great, informative, jam packed video with great info for my postpartum clients, thank you !!
This is the best video for breastfeeding!!!
Is there a possibility to translate it into other languages?
I’d love a German version!
Yes – we will email you privately to tell you how. Thanks for your kind offer.
This is the best video I have ever seen for breast feeding. It helped me so much! Thank you for making it.
Incredibly useful.
Take the time to watch this video…you will be enlightened.
The Global Health Media videos are an excellent resource for mothers and health professionals. Thank you for producing them.
I am so thankful for this video. I am an IBCLC in central Missouri and work to make sure all of my clients have access to this video. It has helped many, many moms in our area. I appreciate all of your hard work!
Great video, different examples,well explained, wrongs and rights , good graphic what happens in the cavity of the mouth when attached.
Holding the breast c- shape like better then using the scissor grip – to leave enough space for baby’s mouth for a deep latch.
Agree with the comment not to overstretch baby’s neck. Will use video further 🙂
I was not successful bfing my first two girls so set out to do my homework this time and was sure I was going to make it work. I have watch numerous YouTube videos and stumbled across this one and it finally plugged all the puzzle pieces together for me. I wish I had this 13 years ago when attempting to nurse my other babies. This time after watching this video I knew what to look for and expect and we have not had any issues since day one! We are now 15 weeks into bfing and want to continue until 1 yr. thank you so much for this video!!
Incredibly useful! !! Thank you!!!
