Hi All

I have been asked for input from a mother who's baby is now 8 weeks old.

Born 25/10/07 NVD (no drugs) since the first time this baby went to the
breast it makes a noise, its not clicking just sounds like its really
enjoying the breastfeed, my concern is, it appears to have quite a high
narrow palate. And her weight gains is around 80-100 grms a week. One of
mum's nipplers  are cracked and bleeding even at 8 weeks, one of the cracks
is on the left nipple between 12 -3, the other side doesn't seem so
affected, but both nipples appear slightly squashed when baby comes off. 

 

What am I missing.

 

Merry Christmas

 

Sincerely

June Nicholls
