Edie,

     I was so glad to see that you suggest bottle-feeding more like
breastfeeding.  Particularly in situations where baby is briefly bottlefed
prior to getting baby back on the breast.  I also point out the importance of
using a verbal cue like "way wide"  or "open".  It's amazing to see how well
it works.  Mom says, "way wide" and baby's mouth opens like a little baby
bird every time!  Expecting the wide mouth during that brief supplemental
period really makes a difference in my practice.  Debbie Albert, IBCLC
