This is the video that we watched in class that shows pretty clearly the basic hunger cues. Here is another video that I really like because the cues look a little less subtle and they are intermixed with non-hunger cues.
This is the video we watched in class that shows when a baby is not hungry, these are the sleepy cues, here are some gassy cues, these are the alert cues and these are the overstimulated/disengaged cues.
This is a video about 'baby reset' if they're really crying and fussing at the breast (or bottle) and they need to be calm down before they're able to feed. This reset works particularly well before a feeding to help everyone zen out a little bit and is extra useful when it's done skin-to-skin.
Also, if you're interested to see the kind of tongue movement that your baby needs to be doing to breastmilk, here's a video that shows the pretty amazing tongue wave. You will most likely get a chance to see this for yourself at some point as well!
And the last fun video for you is on common newborn appearance, and if you'd rather some photos then check this site out.
