DS2 is nearly 5 weeks. He had a tongue tie which was snipped on Weds & has helped reduce feeding discomfort. Today was less comfy again though. When he opens his mouth wide enough it's fine, but it can take several attempts to get him to do that.
I've had feeds observed by a BfC (pre-TT revision) whose conclusion was that his latch is okay as long as he opens wide enough at first. I can't easilyget any more advice IRL till the end of next week now.
Any tips?
