funny latch after injury-ouch!

my poor DS (20 mo) fell right on his face earlier this week, requiring a trip to a&e and some glue to close a cut on the edge of his lip.

he wouldn't feed at all for about 36 hours, but every time he does now it's getting extremely uncomfortable.

it feels like his teeth are rubbing on me or something. he's had a few quite long feeds since his mini strike which has been a bit hard. he only feeds 2-3 times a day though.

how do you persuade a toddler to latch differently?

thanks in advance. :)
