Edie,
I was so glad to see that you suggest bottle-feeding more like
breastfeeding. Particularly in situations where baby is briefly bottlefed
prior to getting baby back on the breast. I also point out the importance of
using a verbal cue like "way wide" or "open". It's amazing to see how well
it works. Mom says, "way wide" and baby's mouth opens like a little baby
bird every time! Expecting the wide mouth during that brief supplemental
period really makes a difference in my practice. Debbie Albert, IBCLC
