Diane,
Wonderful post! Does she use the regular size shield? I still have problems
with that one being too big for some babies, though I will use the regular
one most often. I wonder if the technique would work iwth the little shield
too....
<< She turns the shield's "areola" back on itself and s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-s the
part where the "nipple" joins the "areola" - stretches it at 4 corners.
She puts the stretched shield over the mom's nipple and only then releases
the tension and gets her fingers/thumbs out from underneath it. >>
Jan Barger -- who would say she can't wait to try it, but hates having
clients where she ends up having to use it.... Duh.
