Sorry, the previous without comment somehow got away from me before I was ready to send! Does anyone have anything positive to say about the Latch Assist? Your 2 clients/patients do and, really, what does it matter what anyone else thinks? If it helped them, it helped them. It seems to be like most aids/devices - it works better for some mothers than others; I've heard from mothers who found it helpful and those who said it didn't help at all. And I'm sure as per other aids/devices it can be overused or abused. As gizmos go it's a pretty inexpensive option and it maybe just what certain mothers need, although we may not always be able to know in advance which mothers those are...
