Hi all,
regarding positioning.
In Australia, we say "chest to chest, chin to breast" for positioning.
If we said "tummy to tummy" here, mothers would position their babies
far to low, resting on their lap. Just another example of "Although we
speak the same language it doesn't have the same meaning?"
The rhyme seems to help mums remember correct positioning.
Still hot and wet in Northern Australia
