I am wondering what techniques you all use for working with those babies who
do their tongue motions wrong on the breast. For example, the tongue motions
going from back to front (not front to back), or the tongue dropping too far
away from the
nipple when the jaw goes in the downward motion (not cupping the nipple), or
even when the baby hardly moves his tongue at all.
Secondly, how long do you guess it usually takes to cure this problem?
Thirdly, do we know what causes a brand new baby to do it's tongue wrong
like this?
