Hello all,
I was a lBCLC for 15 years but have let it go several years ago and now have 
a niece whose baby needs suck retraining.  I can't remember all the details 
and am just visiting here for a few days so don't have access to all my books 
etc that are in storage.  Does anyone have a summary of it to send so I can 
use it today or tomorrow with her (and to check that I am doing everything 
right)  The baby has been bottle feeding for a couple of weeks on and off 
(mum is pumping), doesn't open wide enough and when I did get him latched 
didn't have an effective suck (just wiggles)  I have taught her how to 
encourage him to learn to open his mouth wide and am hoping to get a feeding 
tube to finger feed him.  What else is there.
Thanks
in advance
Old LLL leader,  ex IBCLC
