What is a Correct latch on

Question

Does Correct latch on Means you have to Put whole aroela in your baby's mouth?

Answer

As much as possible. Grab your boob like a hamburger and put it in with the nipple slightly pointed towards the roof of the mouth. Make sure baby's mouth is wide open when you do this.

Answer

It depends. My nipples protrude a bit more and baby barely gets any areola. And since my areola grew while pregnant, it really seems like he isn't taking enough in. But our LC says that as long as there isn't any pain and his latch is good, then it's fine.

Answer

If you put your nipple near baby's nose that will force them to open wide and tilt up, which is the perfect way to get a good latch.

Answer

I thought it would depend on the size of your areola and nipple?
