>Maybe mothers need to LEARN to breastfeed, but babies do not!

No, but they expect not to be drugged when they try, and they expect
to have the breast offered in a way that makes sense to them - with
plenty of space for their lower jaw, nipple not presented to their
chin, and so on.  I've always wondered if the reason we stop being
sore by about 6 weeks is that the babies finally figure out how to
take our lousy positioning and make it work for them the way it's
supposed to.
