I am behind in reading Lactnet, but would like to add just one more
metaphor.
Nipple confusion or preference is controversial at out hospital. I
explain to parents that newborns are learning to nurse and that they
must suck differently on the breast and on a bottle. Switching back and
forth can cause them confusion. I compare it to a person learning two
foreign languages at the same time. May say some words in French when
they meant to speak Spanish.
