Hi all
Had the HV round today for a weigh in etc (baby is putting on lots of weight and thriving, incidentally) and i mentioned to her that DD has been suffering from colic from 5pm til around midnight every night. She said that one cause of this could be a bad latch, i.e. she's so used to knowing what she's doing now she's become a bit sloppy with her latch and is taking in air.
I can see how this could cause problems, but before i try and rectify something that i thought was going very well, i just wanted to throw this theory in here and see what you think?
I want to point out that i have never had any pain or nipple issues whilst BF and DD has been on the 50th centile for weight gain etc the whole time and is thriving.
DD is almost 4 weeks.
TIA!

HV said poor latch can cause colic - any truth to this?
