I watched the animation of the latch. Here is my question. I do not see moms
putting their fingers on the nipple when latching. If anything I have them
place the fingers back behind the aerola area. This seems to give a deeper
latch. I have seen 4 moms within the last week during home visits and this is
what I did on each one. I also had them lean back and put the babies in cradle
positions. We had instant relief in each mom.
Maybe show the fingers back on the breast as the baby comes onto the nipple?
Maybe also show the position in a cradle hold from a front view? Then the
dads (or partner) can also observe.
Just my thoughts on this. Your son is a very good artist. You should be
proud,
