I have a post partum mom 2 days out, attempting to breast feed but her nipples are very long, probably the length of a thumb,I'm guessing. The baby is trying but gags or pulls back only wanting to take in the end of the nipple. Any suggestions? I am afraid that the baby will be unable to take as much tissue as needed and cause discomfort for mom, pus not get the volume needed.
