If the baby was "near term," labor was induced, birth was assisted with
forceps, vacuum extractor, or Cesarean surgery was performed, the baby is LIKELY to
have a suck-swallow-breathe problem that is preventing him from handling
normal milk volume and milk flow.
Dear Friends:
Coach Smith reminds us to look for more than one cause for any
breastfeeding difficulty. This is wise.
However, I wonder about her statement. I know that babies born via
operative delivery MAY have suck/swallow/breathe incoordination; I haven't read
anything yet that says it is LIKELY. Big difference.
Have things gotten THAT bad now?
warmly,
