What to Expect in the early days of breastfeeding, the norms and what to observe to detect abnormalities and finally the optimal practices to successful breastfeeding
Breast feeding offers many benefits to your baby. Breast milk contains the right balance of nutrients to help your infant grow into a strong and healthy toddler. Some of the nutrients in breast milk also help protect your infant against some common childhood illnesses and infections. It may also help your health. Certain types of cancer may occur less often in mothers who have breastfed their babies.
Women who don't have health problems should try to give their babies breast milk for at least the first six months of life. There are some cases when it's better not to breast feed. If you have HIV or active tuberculosis, you should not breast feed because you could give the infection to your baby. Certain medicines, illegal drugs, and alcohol can also pass through the breast milk and cause harm to your baby.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. Welcome to our infant feeding information resource pack for you
and your family. As you become a parent your behaviour is both
instinctive and learned. Whilst some of you may have benefited
from handling and caring for babies in the past, many will
experience this for the first time when holding your baby following
birth.
This resource is offered as one measure in supporting you to feed
in a way that is both effective and responsive to the needs of your
developing baby.
As you work through the following slides and video links please
record any questions that you may wish to raise with your
community midwife at your next discussion or meeting?
3. The aim of the package is to provide information to guide you in
your choice and enhance your understanding of infant feeding.
As you work through it you will have the opportunity to consider:
What are the benefits of breastfeeding and could it be for me?
What is responsive feeding and how do I prepare for this
during pregnancy?
You and your baby immediately after birth and the use of skin
to skin contact
How best to position your baby for a feed and ensure that
attachment at your breast is effective
How to tell that feeding is going well
Expressing and storing colostrum and breastmilk
Challenges to breastfeeding
4. Why do health professionals recommend breastfeeding and
breastmilk as the optimum choice for your baby?
The benefits of breastmilk are explained on the following NHS link
https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/pregnancy-and-baby/benefits-
breastfeeding/
They include a reduced risk of infections and hospital admission for
your child and for you the risk of breast/ovarian cancer and
osteoporosis is lowered. For both of you, obesity and
cardiovascular disease is less prevalent.
Follow this video for the thoughts of Tiny Human Productions: A
creative collective of parents
https://vimeo.com/190696865
5. Breastmilk is cheaper and requires no preparation.
Your baby:
Receives immunoglobulins( antibodies that
protect against infection) and microbes that
colonise and protect the bowel (friendly
bacteria) in the breastmilk
Is at reduced risk of ear, gastro-intestinal, chest
and urine infections than a formula fed baby
Is at reduced risk of developing severe asthma
and eczema
Benefits from feeding at the breast with
improved speech and dental development
Learns how to moderate and interpret food, so
is less likely to become obese or develop
diabetes and more readily accepts weening
foods.
In summary
6. Pregnancy: getting ready 1
Responding to your baby’s needs releases the love hormone Oxytocin
that helps the development of nerve connections in the brain.
Consider how you will meet these perhaps using those suggested
below to start with?
Warmth
Food
Security
Love
7. Pregnancy: getting ready 2
Take time to relax and familiarise
yourself with the pattern of your baby’s
movements. Encourage your partner
and your other children to become
involved. Consider:
Playing
music
Talking to
your baby
Soothing
and
stroking in
response to
movements
or kicks
8. Getting feeding off to a good start
Skin to skin and first feed
Holding your baby in skin to skin after birth
regulates temperature, heart rate and
breathing. It helps your baby transition to life
outside of your womb and provides opportunity
for them to follow instinctive behaviours to seek
out the breast and self attach to feed.
*If you have had a long or complicated labour
and/or drugs used that have a sedative effect on
your baby more skin to skin time and help
attaching to your breast may be needed
The sheet to the left page is reproduced with
permission of The Royal Wolverhampton NHS
Trust. It shows the developmental stages your
baby will go through immediately following
birth. Note that the eighth of the nine stages
suckling, or feeding, occurs upwards of an hour
after birth*
Ask your midwife about the biological nurturing
position which is useful in stimulating these
stages.
9. 1.You are
comfortable with
refreshments to hand
2.Use skin to skin to
assist feeding
3.Try a variety of
feeding positions
before you opt for
the most comfortable
but whichever you
choose the principles
are the same
4.Place your baby
close(C) keep the
head free(H) and the
head and body
inline(I) Finally line
your baby up with
their nose to your
nipple(N) CHIN
5. Follow these
principles and as you
can see from the next
slide your baby opens
the mouth wide and
the CHIN leads as you
pull them into the
breast
POSITIONING YOUR BABY FOR

12. Check that feeding is going well. Does your baby
Feed for between 5 and 30 minutes at each
feed 8-12 times over 24 hours
Appear generally calm and relaxed whist
feeding and content after most feeds
At 3-4 days old and beyond audibly swallow
frequently during the feed
Have wet and dirty nappies as expected by
age (see chart over page)
Finish the feed herself
Show no yellow discolouring of skin or eyes
13. The contents of your baby’s nappies will change during the first week. These changes will help you know if feeding is going
well. Speak to your midwife if you have any concerns
Baby’s age Wet nappies Dirty nappies
1-2 days old 1-2 or more per day
urates may be present*
1 or more dark
green/black ‘tar like’
called meconium
3-4 days old 3 or more per day
nappies feel heavier
2 or more,
changing in colour and consistency –
brown/green/yellow, becoming looser (‘changing stool’)
5-6 days old 5 or more
Heavy wet
2 or more
yellow; may be quite watery
7 days to 28 days old 6 or more
heavy wet
2 or more at least the size of a £2 coin
yellow and watery, ‘seedy’ appearance
*Urates are a dark pink/red substance that many babies pass in the first couple of days. At this age they are not a problem,
however if they go beyond the first couple of days you should tell your midwife as that may be a sign that your baby is not
getting enough milk. –see Mothers and others guide for further information
Pattern of wet and dirty nappies when breastfeeding is going well
14. Your baby appears
jaundiced (yellow
discolouration of the
skin)
Your baby is not having
the wet and dirty
nappies as explained
You think your baby
needs a dummy or you
feel you need to give your
baby formula milk
Feeding frequently lasts
for less than 5 minutes or
more than 40 minutes
You are having pain in
your breasts or nipples,
or post feed your nipple
looks pinched or
flattened on one side
Your baby always falls
asleep on the breast
and/or never finishes
the feed himself
Most jaundice in babies is not harmful. It is important to check for
any signs of yellow colouring usually appearing around the face
and forehead, then body, arms and legs. A good time to check is
when changing a nappy or clothes. Press your baby’s skin gently
to see if you can see a yellow tinge developing. Check the whites
of the eyes and the inside of his/her mouth to see if they appear
discoloured
Contact your midwife if ?
15. What if feeding doesn’t go well?
Reluctance to feed in your
newborn will be carefully
monitored in hospital and
appropriate advice given. At
home if your baby feeds fewer
than 6 times in 24 hours, feeds
for less than 5 minutes or more
than 40 minutes regularly, or
shows any of the behaviours
shown on the previous slide
please seek help immediately
and offer skin to skin to prompt
a feed.
16. Poor
ineffective
attachment at
the breast
Prolonged
and or
frequent
feeding
Trauma to
mother and
poor milk
transfer to
baby
Getting positioning and attachment right are important because
If you have any concerns or find that you or your baby’s experience does
not meet your expectations please ask for early support from your
midwife.
The next slide shows some of the more common examples of the effects
of trauma or poor milk transfer
17. Sore, blistered or cracked
nipples are often associated
with ineffective attachment
at the breast and a reduced
milk supply to your baby
Excessive early weight loss,
or faltering growth in the
older baby weight loss of up
to 8% in the first three days
is normal
Mastitis makes your breast
tissue inflamed and painful.
A lump (this often comes
before mastitis) and some
redness around the area is
common. More rarely the
inflammation turns into an
infection that gives flu-like
symptoms or a fever. Using
a variety of feeding positions
can encourage the flow of
milk from different areas of
the breast and avoid blocked
ducts and pooling of milk.

18. When is it
recommended?
Twins, elective caesarean
section, diabetes,
condition requiring anti-
hypertensive treatment
When can I start?
You can start expressing
from 36 weeks of your
pregnancy How often?
2-3 times a day for about
5-10 minutes from each
breast
Expressing breastmilk (colostrum)
before your baby is born
How do I collect it?
We can provide you with
1 ml colostrum syringes
How do I store the milk?
If you are in one of the
above groups ask for
more information at your
antenatal appointments
.
-Pregnant women start
producing colostrum, or early milk,
from around 20 weeks. It is rich in
protein bio-available sugar and anti
infective properties
19. Collecting colostrum and breastmilk
Gently massage
your breast and roll
your nipple
Place thumb and fingers in
a C shaped grip 2-3cm
from the base of the
nipple
Drawing the thumb and forefinger
together gently compress for 2
seconds and release .Repeat until
milk starts to flow. Expect a few
drops, less than 1ml ,at first
Collect your milk in a sterile syringe or container, label with your name date of birth
and date and time milk expressed. Store milk in the base or back of the freezer until
needed. Previously frozen milk can be stored in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
