Funnily enough, I was just reading a report from one of the Mums on the
cross-nursing item last week, that other cross-nursers had got in touch
with.
Including the tale of a Mum who was severely engorged, and who used a
friend's toddler to deal with it, whilst the friend fed the newborn who
was having latch problems, and as a more experienced nurser, she
'taught' the newborn to latch well. Within a few of days, newborn was
successfully feeding from Mum, and toddler was no longer needed to deal
with engorgement.
Can't help thinking before pumps, toddlers were very useful to deal with
engorgement! :-)
