My daughter is only a week old, she would latch right at the beginning but now she's just latching to my nipple. how can…

That's an awesome guide! I will be using that lol.

@haileybuttons, @sev1226, this is pretty much what I'm trying to get her to do.. I looked it up, hopefully this will work out for me better then how she's been latching on!

She's so young too so keep at it. It's the first couple weeks that are the absolute worst. But keep at it! It's worth it

Yeah sounds like a bad latch. Just unlatch her, as painful as that is, and try again. When my nipples hurt, I put a ton of coconut oil on them between feedings. And I'd ice them too. Take care of those nips girl and keep trying for a wide latch.

Yeah its painful for the first min and my nipple hurts like crazy even when I'm not feeding.. @haileybuttons

To get her to latch onto more, tickle her bottom lip with your nipple to make her open her mouth wider then press her whole body against yours. Is it painful when she's latching?

As long as your not in pain and she is happy I'm sure it's all good

My son has been exclusively breastfeeding for 6 months now.. His mouth just shuts around the nipple and his lips are like against my areola.

@sev1226, she's supposed to latch to some of the areola..

I'm a little confused... Baby only needs to latch to your nipple
