My midwife told me that once my first baby latched properly (this was 
day 3 and he had apparently never done it before, though I hadn't been 
sure), that it would feel "like a baby elephant" (she worked in Bali).  
It was a strange description, but spot on!

  It communicated to me very clearly that it would be a *strong* feeling, 
and unlike anything I had ever felt before.  I actually use it 
frequently with new moms myself, with attribution to explain the choice 
of words :)

And thanks for the idea to contrast pull-y and pinch-y.  That's great!
