Dawn, you were so right :)

This baby, if you remember, has never been to the breast (6 weeks).
Mom has excellent supply, baby is taking 5-8 oz per feeding (bottle).

To make a long story short...
Baby was able to latch and suck beautifully, with some work of course.
He took over 6 oz in 20 minutes!

Before I left, Mom was able to do everything herself, quite well.  Later on
she said after I left he fussed some, she got him back on and he "finished"
and fell to sleep at the breast, for the very first time!  Yeah baby!
He's very fortunate, his mommy is very in love with him and is committed to
giving him breastmilk for at least 1 full year, now she can do it at the
breast.

It sure is nice when things go so well :)

Thanks everyone, for your support.
Denny
