Ever wonder how hormones and the gentle warmth of skin-to-skin contact can shape your newborn's first feeding experiences? We'll explore how the birth process influences the onset of lactation and the significant role immediate post-birth contact plays in stabilizing your baby's vitals and encouraging that important first latch.
Discover how your newborn's natural reserves support them through potentially sparse initial feeds and how continued skin-to-skin bonding can boost milk production while keeping your infant primed for nourishment. Whether you are gently arousing your sleepy baby or hand-expressing colostrum, be empowered with practical advice and insights to make these treasured first hours of breastfeeding a harmonious start to a lifelong bond.
