Hello,

I was talking to a mom at my LLL meeting last night and have her 
permission to post.  She was asking this question for a family member 
who lives out of state.  Her baby is about 3 weeks old and she has had 
pain with latch and clicking, and an LC told her the baby had a high 
palate, and that she just had to "suck it up" and deal with the fact 
that this is going to cause her pain forever!!

I know that can't be right, but I wasn't able to find any information in 
my Breastfeeding Answer Book about high palates, so I thought I'd ask 
here. 

At least the LC could have said it a little nicer... but I know there 
has to be something else this mom can do!

You can respond privately if you wish,
Thanks so much!
Liz Cammin, RN, LLLL
