14. When Baby has a "Good Latch" but Breastfeeding Still Hurts

Did your lactation consultant, postpartum nurse, midwife, or pediatrician tell you your baby has a "good latch" so the breastfeeding pain you're experiencing is probably "normal" and you'll just have to wait for it to disappear?  What if I told you it doesn't matter what your baby's latch LOOKS like, if you're in pain?  In this episode of the Breastfeeding With Confidence Podcast, Jaimie Zaki, IBCLC (Lactation Consultant) and mom of 5, discusses what a good latch looks like, what a good latch FEELS like, and how to determine the root cause of painful breastfeeding.  Jaimie discusses oral function examinations, solutions for managing breastfeeding pain, and shares on-demand breastfeeding resources so you can transform your story today.  If you're ready to get answers and implement real solutions for breastfeeding pain, you're in the right place.  NEW: You can ask your breastfeeding question & get it featured on the podcast!
