Thank you all for your responses regarding my sore nipple mother. I especially appreciate the tmj info. I welcome all suggestions as to how to encourage wide mouth opening. Also, has anyone noticed moms being resistant to trying any other hold but the cradle/madonna hold? I like to use football/clutch and cross-cradle for better head control as well as breast compression, but moms always seem to want to use cradle. How do you get a deep latch that way?
Warmly,
