In response to Norma Ritter --- I looked at the attachment animation on Kelly mom and 
agree with her.  Also, the baby is not snuggled tight up against the breast to begin with and 
the chin doesn't sink in.  When a baby is attached deeply, I usually cannot see the chin.  
The animation shows an "up and over" where the lower lip can slide back up onto the 
nipple, instead of a back push which anchors the lower jaw.  Finally, it looks like the hand is 
pushing on the neck.  I find that the difference between pushing on the neck and pushing on 
the head, can make an enormous difference for some mothers.

I've spent years constantly revising slight angles in my handouts to make it clearer to 
moms. The animation is an improvement over most, but could use some tweaking.

Best, Susan Burger
