Bubble palate is one of those things you don’t see unless you know what you’re looking for. And once you do… it changes everything about how you understand latch, milk transfer, and even “tongue tie” conversations.

Inside The Anatomy of Breastfeeding, I teach you how to assess the whole picture so you can support families with more clarity and confidence.

Look who I found in St. Louis this weekend!!! As always, it was a profound honor to teach The Anatomy of Breastfeeding to a group of dedicated and smart chiropractors and IBCLCs. The huge added blessing this time was spending time with my friend MacKenzie. She wins the award for the best host and tour guide! I will forever report that St. Louis is a super cool place!

I see this all the time in practice, and it’s often labeled as a latch issue, but many feeding challenges are actually rooted in cranial and nervous system patterns that affect how a baby coordinates sucking, swallowing, and breathing.

When you start to look beyond just the mouth and understand how the whole system is functioning, everything begins to make more sense.

That’s exactly what I teach inside The Anatomy of Breastfeeding so you can assess with more clarity, communicate with more confidence, and better support the families walking into your office.

The brain grows 2.5 to 3 times its birth size in the first year of life, with 90% of neurological development completed by age six.

Breastfeeding isn’t just nutrition. It’s one of the earliest and most powerful ways a baby’s nervous system gets to develop and connect.

When feeding is struggling, so much more is at stake than the latch.

Inside The Anatomy of Breastfeeding, we help providers understand why.

‼️Clear physical signs your baby has a GOOD latch (the kind you can actually see & feel not just guess)‼️

Because nobody tells you what it really looks like in real life…

✨ You’ll SEE it:
• Mouth wide open (like they’re taking a big bite, not just the tip)
• Lips flanged out , not tucked in
• Chin pressed into your breast, nose lightly touching
• Cheeks full & rounded (no dimpling)

✨ You’ll FEEL it:
• Deep pulling or tugging , not sharp, pinchy pain
• Initial latch discomfort fades, not worsens
• A steady, rhythmic sucking pattern

✨ Baby will DO this:
• Suck → swallow → pause (not frantic nibbling)
• You may hear soft swallows 🥹
• Stay latched without constantly slipping

✨ After the feed:
• Ni**le comes out round (not flattened or lipstick shaped)
• Baby looks calm, relaxed, satisfied
• Your body feels relieved, not sore and tense

💡 Quiet signs moms don’t hear enough:
• Little ear wiggles while sucking
• Letdown starts easier over time
• Baby looks focused, not just comfort suckling

If it hurts the entire time or feels like a pinch… that’s not something you just “push through”

When a baby struggles to latch, the focus is often on positioning or technique.

But feeding requires coordination between the tongue, jaw, neck, and nervous system. When that coordination is off, feeding can feel difficult no matter what you try.

This is why we look at function, not just form.

Inside The Anatomy of Breastfeeding, we teach providers how to understand what’s actually driving feeding challenges so they can support families more effectively.

We see these patterns all the time, and they’re often brushed off as normal.

But they’re not random.

They’re signals that something in the baby’s ability to latch, coordinate, and regulate is not working as well as it should.

When you understand the mechanics and the nervous system behind feeding, you stop guessing and start seeing clearly.

That’s exactly what we teach inside The Anatomy of Breastfeeding.

Providers, make sure to share this with your community because breastfeeding is more than nutrition.

It’s one of the first ways a baby learns to regulate, coordinate, and feel safe in their body.

Suck, swallow, breathe, connect all working together. When that coordination is off, feeding challenges often follow. This is why looking beyond just latch matters.

Inside The Anatomy of Breastfeeding, we teach providers how to understand the why behind feeding struggles.

This is why “just try a new position” doesn’t always work.

Latch is a full-body coordination process. It involves the jaw, tongue, palate, and nervous system all working together. When one piece is off, the entire feeding pattern changes.

When providers understand that, everything starts to make more sense.

If you’re ready to go deeper into the why behind feeding challenges, The Anatomy of Breastfeeding is designed to help you connect the dots clinically and confidently.

Sometimes the challenge with breastfeeding is not milk supply or positioning.

It is the baby’s ability to open wide and maintain a deep latch. These patterns can indicate that the structures involved in feeding are not moving or coordinating the way they should.

Feeding requires a precise rhythm of the tongue, jaw, palate, and nervous system working together. When there is tension or restriction in this system, latch quality often suffers.

Recognizing these patterns is an important step in understanding what may be contributing to feeding challenges. In the Anatomy of Breastfeeding Seminar, chiropractors learn how the nervous system and cranial mechanics work together to support successful feeding.
