In Baby-Led Breastfeeding, we see mothers learning to breastfeed naturally by letting their babies show them how.

Like kittens and puppies, human babies are already hardwired to seek out and find the breast. In this video we see just how babies can do it -- when we get out of the babies' way. We also see Kittie Frantz, RN, CPNP-PC, who now uses this same approach in her own practice.

Let Baby Lead the Way. When a mother is sitting, enjoying her baby resting on her chest, the relaxed and hungry baby will bob, bounce, gently fall or even throw himself down toward the breast.

The Mother - baby dance - the baby doesn't do this all by himself. The dance begins as the mother calms her infant so that he can follow his instincts. The dance continues as the mother follows her instincts to respond to her baby's moves.

"We don't have to make our babies learn to feed we just allow them to follow their instincts to learn."
