Had a really difficult time getting a baby to nurse yesterday.  Finally
discovered that baby did better in a traditional cradle hold than in
transitional or football hold.  Nursed 25 minutes non-stop in cradle
hold.

When I mentioned to mom that baby didn't seem comfortable with a hand on
his neck, mom said, "He had the cord around his neck twice."  Made sense
to me.  Told her to just use cradle and sidelying for a while.

Always learning from moms.
