Thanks for the information Blue Skies!

This is a link that I normally send contacts who are new to the process, or seem focused on nipple sucking (destined for failure).

Tips for a good latch from AdultBreastfeeding

I read in a comment somewhere that the tongue action is something like peeling a grape with your tongue….nipple to the soft palate, mouth over areola….

I’ve read that as well and it’s a pretty apt description.

Flowrgardn, that is actually what I have done and it works very well. It’s not as hard as it sounds and it works really well to help pull milk out of the breast or to stimulate the nipple when dry suckling.

You’re quite welcome and very right as a good comfortable latch is highly important. So I hope it will help those who need the guidance.

Much appreciated Ella. It’s an illuminating video covering basic inner workings of the breast, as well as attaining a proper latch.

Hope it helps many draw close and nurture in such an exquisitely beautiful way💞
