#1) try increased time on first breast with breast massage when baby
swallowing slows - to increase hindmilk/calorie intake --> increased
satisfaction and wt gain.

<<Mom finally broke down and supp with formula-baby took 11/2 oz and
slept for 5 hours.>>

if #1 above does not work fast enough, hopefully supp can be at breast ie
sns.

<< Does have tongue tie..... baby is latching on great, >>

tongue does not jut back and forth with sucking? baby could be sucking
ineffectively after the first few minutes ie looks ok but tongue out of place.
