I think this problem has been addressed previously, but I can't get a hit in the archives. Eight week old baby makes a smacking noise with each suck, almost sounds like a "kiss", and is sliding off the breast easily. Mom has strong let down, and has commenced one sided feedings. Mom isn't in pain (could it still be thrush?). We've talked about striving for an asymmetrical latch. Thankyou!
