I talk a lot with my clients about how to position a baby, where to rest your nipple before the latch, where baby's chin should be as he/she latches, where your hand should and shouldn't be as he/she latches...watch these videos and try to help support your baby to open wide and get a mouth-full...it's called "breast"feeding, NOT "nipple"feeding, after all! If you feel like you are doing all of this (or having a hard time doing these techniques, or still having pain or milk supply issues or a fussy baby), it's time to call me or another IBCLC for help!
Also below are videos about bottlefeeding and cupfeeding, two other options for feeding babies.
617-686-0052 is my cellphone and jeanette@babiesincommon.com is my email. Reach out if you need help or...
