​Hi!!

A question... Going through some old presentations,​ I had written back in
2004 that peak intraoral negative pressure during breastfeeding could reach
-240 mmHg. I have no idea right now where I got that information. According
to Geddes (2008 and 2012), peak negative pressure is either -122 or -145.
Elad and cols, in their 2014 US study using a model, say it ranges from -20
to -40.

I don´t have Cathy Genna´s Sucking Skills book here at home so I can´t look
it up...

Any light to shed, anyone?

Thanks!
KIka
