Jennifer,
Thank you for your comments.  I had actually referred this mom to CST with
her first non nurser.  She never really saw any changes.
I forgot to write, but both babies had what I describe as a pretty regular
palate.  No posterior tongue tie, good tongue lift as well as in /out.  The
suction was not great.  What I would describe as weak.  The finger could
slide in and out too easily.
The mom was against trying a nipple shield, as we had tried that with her
first and it was not successful.  When I saw her, she had in her mind built
up that this one would happen NORMAL, not needing to use any accessories.
In addition, I am not sure what would be gained by a nipple shield with the
tube underneath, than a tube plain.
I find it fascinating what you mentioned about both growing in the same
uterus.  I just could think of no reason why she should be having issues
with both.  It is so sad.
I will gently recommend CST again.
Thank You!
Jessica Billowitz, IBCLC
