When to listen to the CD?
From birth onwards. However if you are anxious about breastfeeding you can listen to it a few times before the birth as a way to prepare yourself in advance.
The CD has two main sections, with a brief introduction on how to get the most out of the CD.
The first section is a full hypnosis session intended for you to listen to by yourself in the first few weeks of motherhood so you can really let go and relax. This session also puts in place plenty of practical suggestions that will help you when you come to breastfeeding your baby.
The second section is a relaxation and guidance session to be used while breastfeeding your baby. This session guides you through the breastfeeding process, giving you time to settle down with your baby and helping you to keep relaxed throughout.
How the Breastfeeding Companion CD works
Breastfeeding is universally recommended by birthing professionals, but worry and unrealistic expectations mean that many women struggle to establish and continue breastfeeding.
Difficulties are often due to the mother feeling tense and worried about doing it right or not producing enough milk, not following the natural cues and rhythms of her baby’s need to feed, and not eating and drinking enough. If you are feeling stressed or anxious about breastfeeding, your body will not produce the hormones which prompt the production of the right amount of milk for your baby – and your baby may pick up on your concerns too.
All of these factors compound the problem, as stress and anxiety are directly linked to a reduction in the production of milk. However, once a mother relaxes and begins to trust her body and her baby’s cues to feed, breastfeeding becomes a much easier and more enjoyable experience.
The Breastfeeding Companion CD helps you to let go of anxiety and teaches you to relax before, during and after feeding, promoting a two-way communication and bond with your baby.
