As a postpartum doula I once worked with a baby who wouldn't open her mouth
wide. Had the mom try at every feeding and then give the baby pumped milk.
On the 7th day the baby decided to open a little wider and she got rewarded
and never forgot for the next 3 years. Vicky York

Subject: bf in the movies
Took the kids to a movie they've been dying to see: Legally Blonde II, a
definite non-thinking movie.
Out of nowhere, the lines (not exact quotes, I was at the movie):
"You have to do something to know just how awful it can be."
"Yeah....like breastfeeding."
Now what was that for? Thrown in the middle of the movie; no connection
with babies at all. I'm sure it will set some little subconscious note in
some of the unknowing, mostly teen age heads there.
Aargh.

Subject: oral aversion
The baby may be a little injured (sore throat) and just defending her oral
space. Even when interventions are necessary they can be stressful and
create negative associations and require healing time before the baby feels
safe about penetration. I would consider not trying to do too much. Just
continue the skin-to-skin and hand expressing drops of milk onto the nipples
for the baby to lick off. If the only bottle the baby will take has a
comparatively short teat length, it may be that it feels safe to the baby
because it doesn't trigger the gag. If the bottle feeding is working, just
feed the baby pumped milk for a few days until the baby recovers and then
start gently transitioning to breast with shield, tub bathing, trying to
nurse when baby is sleepy, standard stuff. In the meantime, be very
positive with the mother. Plant lots of suggestions that as the baby
recovers this will work out.

Subject: oral aversion
Baby also feeds very slowly--up to 30 minutes to take 2 oz
from bottle or finger feeding. Mom must actively feed her,
moving the nipple around in her mouth.
Dear Friends:
There may be other issues going on with this baby. Can she be evaluated
by a Speech and Language or Infant Feeding specialist or a pediatric OT?
warmly,
