Hannah: Maybe the problem with the scissor hold is not the actual hold
but where some mothers place the fingers. If the "scissors" is narrow and
over part of the areola, then that could lead to the baby taking only the
nipple, with obvious resulting problems. But if the "scissors" is wide
and allows baby to take enough areola, then there should be no problem.
Just a thought, Alicia Dermer, MD, IBCLC.
