Goal delineation is an inescapable task of parenthood. We delineate goals to achieve even the simplest of tasks. We also delineate them for the more complex tasks. This article will provide several tips that will prove invaluable in helping achieve those goals, and in some cases at least, even delineate them.
Learn how to properly bring your baby to your breast in order to avoid improper latching techniques. A bad latch will cause pain to for mom and a less than satisfactory feeding for baby so it is very important to latch your technique. Make sure to always bring the baby up to your breast and check that he has a large amount of the areola in his mouth for the best experience.
Use a pump or hand express milk if you are engorged and the baby is not ready to eat when breastfeeding. There are few things more painful to a new mother than having produced too much milk and not having a way to release it. Our bodies gradually start to produce only what is needed for the baby but it takes a little while to regulate. By expressing some of the milk you can reduce the pain until baby’s next meal.
Let the baby nurse as long as he is still actively sucking with deep drawn motions. If the baby starts to slow down, hold down on your breast for a few seconds to release more milk. If he is still hungry, this will get him going again. If he does not respond then try switching sides as he may have emptied that breast.
By delineating goals we provide direction not just for our children but also for us. Simply knowing how to delineate a goal is insufficient. We must also know how to go about achieving that goal. This article should prove invaluable in teaching us how to do both. Goals are meaningless unless we know how to attain them.
