The Nursing Bracelet™will help you to
track your baby's feeds, by reminding you which breast you
last fed from and when your baby last fed. It is made from
number beads and colored beads and is designed to represent
a 12-hour clock. The number beads represent the hours and
each colored bead indicates a 15-minute interval.
1. Switch the bracelet from wrist to
wrist to keep track of which breast you last fed from.
2. The charm is moved to mark the time
your baby last fed. For example, if your baby begins a feed
at 4:30, place the charm between the second and third colored
beads after the 4 (see the diagram to the right). This will
help
you to determine when your baby's
next feed is due.
Alternatively, you can simply
mark when the next feed will be due.
3. Another use for the bracelet is to
record the total number of feeds in a day (newborns should
feed eight to twelve times per day). Place the charm after
the relevant number bead.
