Thanks for all the kind words and tips, and Sagre - that did make sense thanks


So we saw the LC today. She said I was doing really well and liked my hold and technique, she just had a few slight adjustments for me. She positioned Paige a bit more forward accross my chest, moved my hand a bit lower on her body (I was holding her head instead of her neck and shoulders), and she got me to pull her to the breast a bit more forcefully to get more breast in her mouth. She also said I to let go of my breast once in her mouth as her suck is hard enough to hold her on and by holding it I was likely pointing the nipple to the roof of her mouth instead of the back of her throat which could be causing some rubbing. We've tried a few times at home now and I think there is some improvement so I'll keep it up and see how the nipples heal. She said to go see her again tomorrow if still struggling.

You guys are awesome
