  3. 2 Nurse 8 to 12 times a day once your milk comes in.

  4. 3 Missed a feeding? use a breast pump or hand expression to remove the milk.

  5. 4 Make sure your baby is latching correctly. Lactation consultants are available to help with any latching issues you may experience with baby.

  6. 5 Offer baby one breast at a time. Let baby complete nursing on one breast before switching. Feedings will typically take 10 - 20 minutes.

  7. 6 Avoid using bottles and pacifiers (unless medically necessary). This helps to prevent nipple and bottle confusion.
