Tammie, I think anyone who is helping new mothers with latch-on should read
"The Mother-Baby Dance: Positioning and Latch-On" written by Andrea Eastman
for La Leche League's magazine for Leaders, LEAVEN. This article is
available at http://www.lalecheleague.org/llleaderweb/LV/LVAugSep00p63.html.
Also, you can find accurate, and easy-to-understand information on how to
assess latch-on if you visit Diane Wiessinger's website at
http://www.wiessinger.baka.com/bfing/index.html. For your situation, I
particularly recommend the articles in the "How Breastfeeding Works"
section. You will also find some great information on Cindy Curtis'
website, particularly the "When Latching" article at
http://users.erols.com/cindyrn/31.htm.
