Breastfeeding Positions – How to Choose the Best One?

A comfortable position means more ease for the mother and more effective feeding for the baby. Here are some of the most popular positions you can try:

👉 Cradle Hold – baby’s tummy to your tummy, with their head resting in the bend of your arm.
👉 Cross-Cradle Hold – perfect for premature babies or little ones who need more support while latching.
👉 Football Hold – a great choice after a C-section.
👉 Side-Lying Position – ideal for night feedings and in the early days when you need extra rest.
👉 Laid-Back Breastfeeding – a natural, relaxed position, especially helpful if your milk flows quickly.

✨ Remember to take care of your comfort too — support your back, use pillows, and keep water and a snack within reach.

Is Your Baby Feeding Effectively? 👶💛

Many new parents wonder whether their little one is eating enough. Here are some clear signs of effective feeding during the first six weeks of life:

✨ Steady weight gain – the most important and reliable indicator.
✨ Frequent feeds – your baby should feed at least 8 times in 24 hours, including at night.
✨ Noticeable breast changes – you may feel tingling or slight pressure as milk begins to flow, and your breasts should feel softer and lighter after feeding.
✨ Active feeding – you can hear your baby swallowing. If your little one gets sleepy at the breast, gently encourage them by tickling their foot or chin, or by changing their diaper.
✨ A deep, comfortable latch – your baby’s nose and chin touch the breast, the cheeks look full and rounded, and the lips form a soft “fish” shape.
✨ Plenty of wet diapers – at least 6 a day, with pale, mild-smelling urine.
✨ Regular bowel movements – 3–4 soft, mushy stools daily.
✨ A content, active baby – your little one is alert, satisfied, has good muscle tone and healthy pink skin.

These signs apply to babies under six weeks old. Every baby is unique, but these guidelines can help you feel more confident in the early weeks of feeding. 💕

If you ever have concerns, don’t hesitate to reach out to a healthcare professional.

💬 Share experiences — the joys and the struggles
🤝 Talk with experienced professionals who can offer guidance and reassurance

These classes remind you that you’re not alone on this journey. With support, understanding, and a sense of community, parenting becomes a little easier — and a lot more joyful. 💕

🐼 Red Panda Therapy Reminder:
Dads, Your Baby Needs You! 💙

It’s November (Movember!) — a time to spotlight men’s health, and today’s message is especially for all the fathers and father figures out there.

We know life gets busy, and sometimes the only “therapy” you get is scrolling through social media videos 😊.
But here’s the real truth:
👉 Your kids need you — healthy, present, and here for the long haul.

Children thrive when they have strong, reliable fathers in their lives.
And to be that rock, you’ve got to care for the foundation — YOU.

Take this as your reminder to check in on your health and keep being the amazing role model your children look up to every single day. 💪

And if you’d like to spend even more quality time with your little one, Red Panda Therapy offers bonding classes — a chance to connect, laugh, and make lasting memories together. 😊

🧠 Early Exposure to a Mother’s Voice Boosts Brain and Language Development in Preterm Babies 🧠

A study published on October 13–14, 2025, led by Stanford Medicine in collaboration with Weill Cornell Medicine and the Burke Neurological Institute, found that premature infants who listened to recordings of their mother’s voice developed more mature white-matter structure in a key language pathway — the left arcuate fasciculus — compared with infants who did not receive that exposure.

🍼 Key research highlights:

The randomized controlled trial included 46 preterm infants, born at 24–31 weeks gestational age.

In the “treatment” group, babies heard around 160 minutes per day (in 10-minute bursts every ~30 minutes overnight) of their mother reading a story in her native language.

MRI scans near term age showed significantly greater maturation of the left arcuate fasciculus in the exposed group; the right side showed less effect, consistent with known language lateralisation.

Researchers emphasised that while preemies often miss the in-womb auditory experience of hearing their mother’s voice, supplementing this exposure in hospital settings can support early brain and language-pathway development.

👉 What this means for parents and caregivers:
Even from birth — especially for preterm infants — early, loving voice and interaction can make a measurable difference in your baby’s brain development and future language skills.

At Red Panda Therapy , I guide parents on how to communicate with their baby, read their cues and behaviours, and create nurturing environments that support healthy growth and connection.

🧘‍♀️ Yoga for Babies (16 Weeks and Older) 🧸

As your little one grows, it’s important to help them find balance between awake and sleep times. Baby yoga is a wonderful way to support this natural rhythm — it helps babies become more active and alert during their waking hours, while also promoting deeper, more restful sleep. 🌙✨

At Red Panda Therapy , I personally lead baby yoga sessions, combining my experience in baby massage and baby yoga to support your little one’s development in a safe and nurturing environment. 💕

If you’d like to learn more about how yoga can support your baby’s growth and wellbeing, make sure to follow us for more tips and inspiration! ❤️
