For the past few days when layla feeds she sort of makes my boob click I can't explain it it's like she's not letting all the boob in and it pulls in over her tongue? Confusing I know she's feeding fine but she keeps coming off then going back on as if she's not latching proper but. I know she is.. xx

Answer

If she makes a clicking sound it's because she isn't quite latched properly and is slipping off when she makes the sound. It used to happen to my son in the early days up until about 10 weeks. Think his mouth was just so teeny for to fit my nipple in but when he got bigger it stopped. Have you tried the 'flipple' technique for getting your nipple as far back in her mouth as possible? Have a look on YouTube, that should stop the clicking!

Answer

If it's not painful for you and baby is gaining weight and not distressed by it then I wouldn't worry ? one of mine did something similar - I'm convinced she had a lip tie (which they don't do anything about!!) but when she got a bit bigger it seemed to stop!

Answer

I'm not sure then ? does sound like it's not a good latch but not sure what else to try apart from unlatch and start again making sure she gets boob to the back of her mouth x

Yeah she was checked for both when she was born as had a hard time latching her on but she dosent have either xx

Answer

Is she tongue/lip tied? Has she been checked? My son clicking on me was a tongue tie that we booked to have snipped. We never corrected lip tie but we still had problems feeding so I wish we had x
