Too true! We're lucky they'll do it for us

I tried the nipple shield but I'm not sure whether it's a good thing or not. It still hurt to attach but not quite as badly, but I don't think he was attached well, is it possible that it is too big for his mouth? I started him on the shield and then once he had pulled my nipple out a bit took it off and he finished without it. Hmm, I really wish it wasn't the weekend! Hopefully I can go in to the breast feeding clinic on Monday.

Does anyone have any tips for getting him to open up wide? He won't open long enough for me to get it in...
