Jessica, have you considered a pinched nerve from the neck?  Some moms
make certain that baby is well positioned and latched, but don't pay
proper attention to their own comfort.  I have seen moms in some of the
most awkward positions that would have to hurt after a while.  If this
mom has been nursing while leaning forward, perhaps she has caused a
spasm in her neck and upper back.  A good physical therapist, massage
therapist may be able to give her some relief.
