Hello, All:  A baby is latched properly if the following 3 criteria are being met:
1.  both mom and baby are physically comfortable in whatever position they 
choose (no aching neck, shoulders, arms in mom. Baby not squirming due to a 
limb being twisted, etc.)
2.  baby is transferring milk.
3.  mom's nipples are comfortable.
Peaceful, relaxing Holidays to All!
