JAKARTA - Prospective mothers need to get direct education about the right breastfeeding technique for the health of their mothers and babies. Therefore, finding a place of delivery that supports the provision of breast milk (ASI) is the best choice.

Chairman of the Indonesian Breastfeeding Mothers Association (AIMI) Rahmah Housniati alias Nia Umar said direct education on the right way to breastfeeding can avoid injured nipples and breast milk production can be optimal.

"Make sure the delivery place supports breastfeeding. So, when you are pregnant, you have been looking for a place to give birth that does not separate the baby. You can initiate Early Breastfeeding (IMD) because the IMD makes the baby breastfeed in a good position, attached well," Nia said as quoted by ANTARA, Monday, February 20.

The first days are the key in breastfeeding, including the question of good attachment so as not to cause breast pain.

A good attachment, no pain, no pain, it will ensure that the milk production is also optimal. Not only does it not hurt, but also so that the milk production is optimal," said Nia.

Pediatrician who is also a member of the Indonesian Doctors Association (IDI) and the Indonesian Pediatrician Association (IDAI) dr. Melanie Yudiana Iskandar, SpA conveyed the same thing. According to Melanie, breastfeeding techniques must be understood from the start of giving birth.

The cause of the tornado was due to the placement that had not been right on target, namely the breast was lacking in the baby's mouth.

The attachment must be correct. And it must be taught from the start that she (the baby) was born, yes. The first time giving birth, the right position and attachment technique must be good," Melanie explained.

Melanie explained that a good way to breastfeeding is to place aerola in the nutmeg area, the area around the roof of the mouth, not in the nutmeg durum area, the cavity area behind the insular teeth andte teeth. In addition, breastfeeding with aerola is also very important to pay attention to so that the baby's body weight can grow optimally.
