Hi Wise Women, I have a mom whose baby was born at 36 weeks. She was nursing constantly and not gaining. She starting gaining on mom's pumped milk, which I am glad to say is copious. I assessed a tongue tie, which was clipped the other day, at about 3.5 weeks of age. Baby weighs about 5 pounds, 5 ounces. Mom has noticed a very significant improvement, but still feels baby is not strong in her suck, not active enough, and would be on the breast 24/7 still if she did not supplement. Mom successfully nursed her first child. Any suggestions on how to improve this baby's transfer? With great appreciation, Julie Rosen, LLLL, IBCLC *********************************************** Archives: http://community.lsoft.com/archives/LACTNET.html To reach list owners: [log in to unmask] Mail all list management commands to: [log in to unmask] COMMANDS: 1.
