The observation form for assessing a breastfeeding couple is in the article:
Breastfeeding and the Use of Pacifiers. Lennart Righard, MD and Margaret O.
Alade, RN, BSC, MS. Birth, vol 24, no 2, Jun 1997, pp.116-120.

It gives a good demonstration of how many things there are to observe during
a feed, showing the chart note 'Latch looks good' for what it is, namely a
meaningless phrase usually written to make it look like the staff person was
doing their job when they really weren't.

Grrr.
