When you say breastfeeding method, do you mean positioning and positioning the baby at the breast? Generally, the most common and effective method is this:
Position the baby facing the breast, belly to belly. When the mouth opens wide, let the baby take not just the nipple but a large portion of the areola (the dark ring around the nipple) into their mouth. The lower lip should be turned outward, and the chin should be pressed against the breast. If the baby is only nursing on the nipple, it will be painful and the baby won't get enough milk — in this case, adjust the position.
It's enough to see the baby's chin moving and swallowing during nursing. If there's pain, cracking, or the baby seems unsatisfied, I recommend getting support from a lactation consultant or midwife.
