Hi Laurie!
She hadn't an edema, because she was pumping.

Sorry for my poor English. I tought to the nipple confusion...
I mean, the baby cannot latch because is tongue.ties, because is nipple 
confused, or both? I usually think to everything, to avoid not to consider 
something important.
btw, I will tell her about more time :-))
Many thanks Laurie for your support
Hugs
Martina
