Sore nipples because I suck & can't help my kid to latch properly<<<
When I struggled I was shown a technique:first hold breast as if you are trying to fit into his mouth "sandwich like form. As if he is biting into a sandwich. Then on top of that after you get any kind of latch you "flick his bottom lip out----so it kind of roll open like a "duck" and in turn covers most of the nipple. Message me if interested/confused for more info. It still took a lot of work and actually my BF was doing that for me!! Lol yeah it was team effort.
@godsjoi, it definitely takes time to find the right position and latch... You'll get it!
It sure is @yanald90 😓 I plan to call the lactation nurse on Monday morning. And @anyae23 he opens nice and wide, I just can't do my part lol ☹️
It may sound a bit rough but try pinching his cheeks a little to hold his mouth open and place your breast in his mouth to where you need it to be.
Nooooooo! It's just difficult! Ask for help! I cried for two days
Yes!! We do the sandwich too. It's definitely helped. We just need some practice like @anyae23 said lol. @yanald90 my husband has to help me too. Our son is such a squirmy wormy and his hands are always in the way lol.
