Hi All,
 
To the gal who wanted to know what a reverse suck is (sorry I don't
remember who it was - I am having serious e-mail issues right now and
reading is a real interesting chore right now...but you can see I AM
reading!) - 
 
A reverse suck is just that - the baby's tongue works in reverse -
rather than starting the peristaltic wave at the tip of the tongue it
starts at the back.  Baby is pretty much unable to get the milk out -
s/he milks the breast backwards...Not a good thing!
 
Hope that helps!
 
To the others with their ideas - THANK YOU!  I'll be talking to the mom
on Monday to give her some hope that this can correct itself...
 
Thanks a bunch!

Jaye Simpson, IBCLC, RLC, CIIM, MOM
