Doctors generally encourage breast feeding because human milk is the ideal food, the natural food intended for human infants.
For the first few days after Baby is born, your breast will secrete a thin, milky fluid called colostrum. During this time Baby will probably oblige by not being too hungry. After this your milk develops and fills the sinuses located behind the areola, the dark colored area around the nipples.
During the first weeks, it is more comfortable to lie down to nurse your baby. You may lie down on your side with baby resting on your arm.
