If feeding feels harder than it should, it’s not always about baby’s mouth.
A lot of latch struggles come down to how a baby is supported while feeding—not just what their lips or tongue are doing. Babies eat best when they feel calm, stable, and well-positioned. When their body feels secure, coordinating sucking, swallowing, and breathing is simply easier.
This is why small changes—bringing baby fully in toward your body, supporting their shoulders and hips, and creating a relaxed feeding environment—can make a noticeable difference, even when nothing else has changed.
Inside my latching guide, I break this down step by step with visuals and practical cues you can try right away. And if you want individualized help, we can work through positioning and latch together during a consult.
