Hi all !
     I have a mom who rented a pump last week- baby was in the
hospital (premature). Now baby is home but having trouble latching on
to right breast.  Mom says right nipple is slightly inverted. Tried
using a "cut" syringe to pull out nipple which mom said worked great
but baby still pulling off that breast and does not want to nurse on
that side. When mom pumps she does get same amount of milk out of
that side.( Mom says her 4 year old daughter had the same problem
with that breast and eventually worked through it but it took a long
time) Any suggestions to help this process along??? Mom says she has
had 1 successful nursing on this side with baby but most of the time
baby gets too frustrated.Any lactnetters out there on Christmas?

                                                        Thanks, and
Merry Christmas to all!
