The client is trying to breastfeed and wants to but is having an
increasingly harder time holding the baby. 

Regina,  How about having the mom use a sling for nursing; allows hands free 
and could be used for cradling hold and also clutch (football) hold.  Once 
worked with a mom who was a hemipalegic who nursed nicely with the sling when 
breastfeeding on her affected side.
