I am working with a mother who is third day postpartum. Spontaneous vaginal delivery. Healthy full-term infant 6lb8oz. No obvious oral pathologies.Vigorous digital suck. The infant is mildly jaundiced. Mother attempts breastfeediing around the clock but the baby just won't latch on. I am stumped. Any suggestions?
