Breast feeding question - won’t latch anymore

Hello
just wondering if anyone else has found that their baby’s latch has got worse? My six week old is suddenly unable to get a deep latch after weeks of it being perfect. Will just keep taking him off and re latching until he gets it right and trying different positions but I wondered if this is something others have experienced?
thanks!

I found it could go through stages as baby grows and develops. At first it's instinct and then as they start doing it on purpose and with more awareness I found it could knock their latch temporarily bur that they got it back.

Agree with Theduchy but if you're still struggling, have a look at this video, ring one of the BFing Helplines or visit your local BFing Support Group, or you could do all 3 Wink
