Deep Latch!

Why are we looking at people who are about to dig into huge, delicious sandwiches? Because this is the imagery I often suggest when thinking about how a baby should latch onto the breast...wide mouth and UP and OVER, like biting into your favorite submarine (minus the actual biting, I hope! ;) Tickle the nose with your nipple, give baby a chance to gape, and tuck 'em in and lean back as they come up and over the breast, drawing the nipple to the palate. Latch should feel like a gentle pain-free tugging sensation. Picture those yummy sandwiches, and give it a go!
