BIOLOGICAL NURTURING™
Laid-back Breastfeeding
      by Suzanne Colson, PhD

DVD English $98.00

This DVD will change how you look at breastfeeding, adding a mother-led component and new parameters for the assessment of successful breastfeeding.

Biological Nurturing™ is a neurobehavioral approach to breastfeeding initiation. This DVD disseminates compelling visual data that might have a profound impact on how you help mothers get started breastfeeding.

Human mothers and babies are amazingly versatile, able to breastfeed in many positions. Traditional upright and side-lying positions are compared and contrasted with laid-back breastfeeding.

In this DVD, you will see:

• how interactions in biological nurturing positions release some 20 neonatal reflexes stimulating latch

• the dual role of some reflexes… either as stimulants helping the baby find the breast, latch on and sustain milk transfer or as barriers thwarting self attachment and/or delaying latch.

• baby reflex feeding cues and babies who latch whilst asleep. This menu is a preview of unpublished research findings concerning breastfeeding across a wide range of neonatal behavioral states.

Dr. Suzanne Colson is a midwife with 35 years experience supporting breastfeeding mothers. She developed the concept of Biological Nurturing™ building upon personal and clinical experience as well as through her award-winning PhD research.

Dr. Colson believes that mothers as well as babies have breastfeeding instincts. The role of the health professional is to provide a hormone-enhancing environment conducive to the expression of these innate behaviors. This newly-developed approach puts biology back into breastfeeding!
