Begin by finding a comfortable chair, preferably with arms, and gather some firm pillows. Sit and place the pillows at your side to support your baby, who will lie next to you. Lay your baby next to you on her or his back. The baby’s bottom should be all the way back against the back of your chair, with her or his legs going up the back of the chair. Support the baby’s back and shoulders with your arm, and cradle the base of your baby’s head with your fingers. Use your other hand (on the opposite side of the baby) to support your breast.
