Tips for Breastfeeding mothers

Postpartum confinement following childbirth is a traditional practice to allow the mother to rest and recover following childbirth. The length of this period varies depending on the different cultural background which can range from 30 days to 100 days. This first 3 months postpartum is also affectionately known as the ‘fourth trimester’ where both the mother and infant(s) begin to bond and learn the skills of breastfeeding.
