How does The Nursing Bracelet™ work?
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.
- Switch the bracelet from wrist to wrist to keep track of which breast you last fed from.
- 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.
- 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.
