All these suggestions sound great Laura and I would suggest to just keep offering and to avoid pressuring the baby- avoiding an aversion. If she's put the breast in her mouth 3 times she can do it again and it's common for children to be able to do something and then not for a while and then have another go and then not again for a while.

I've suggested co-bathing, special code words for paci and a different special word for eating, watching videos of babies nursing, hanging out with other nurslings s-t-s with their moms, and body work for baby. Even suggested nursing another baby in front of her daughter.   Little girl, after several weeks, did put her mouth on mom's nipple three times in a row - I think it was a one time event.  I've shared Alice Farrow's website and Karleen Gribble's article on older adopted nurslings.
