The stability of the newborn occiput matters more than most people realize.

Because of its relationship to the brainstem, the vagus nerve, and cerebral spinal fluid pressure, this area plays a significant role in early neurological function and long-term development.

At birth, the occiput is not one solid bone. It is made up of four separate pieces connected by cartilage. This allows for movement and protection during birth, but it also means this area can be easily affected by tension or distortion.

Understanding how to assess and support the occiput is foundational when working with infants. This is a key focus we cover in The Anatomy of Breastfeeding course.

Did you know the newborn occiput is not one solid bone at birth?

It is made up of four separate pieces connected by cartilage. This design allows for flexibility and protection as a baby moves through the birth process.

The largest portion is the squamous part, which forms the back of the skull. The lateral parts sit on either side, surrounding the foramen magnum and forming the occipital condyles. At the base is the basilar part, which connects with the sphenoid to form the sphenobasilar joint.

This natural segmentation allows for motion between the parts, but it also means the occiput is especially influenced by forces during birth. Understanding this anatomy is key when assessing newborn function.

When a baby struggles to breastfeed, it’s rarely just about the latch. It’s about how the entire system is working together.

Breastfeeding requires coordinated movement from the tongue, jaw, cranial bones, upper neck, and nervous system. Each part has a role, and when one area isn’t functioning well, the baby adapts the best they can.

Those adaptations often show up as shallow latch, leaking milk, reflux, tension, clicking, or long feeds that never feel quite right.

In The Anatomy of Breastfeeding, we slow this process down and look at the whole picture. We focus on understanding the anatomy, recognizing patterns, and learning how to assess the system instead of chasing isolated symptoms.

An infant’s brain is not just growing. It is rapidly wiring itself based on function and experience.
During the first year of life, the brain nearly triples in size. By age six, about 90 percent of neurological development is complete. What happens early truly matters.

Feeding patterns, movement, and connection all play a role in shaping the nervous system. The support we offer in those early months helps build the foundation for lifelong health and function.

Breastfeeding challenges are rarely just about latch. Anatomy, tension, and nervous system regulation often play a key role.

Dr. Lynn’s Anatomy of Breastfeeding Hands-On Seminar helps practitioners better understand the structure and function behind feeding struggles so they can support families with clarity and confidence.

Join us for one of the 2026 hands-on seminars.

Babies are born with the innate ability to breastfeed. When that ability is compromised, normal neurological function is not being expressed.

Feeding dysfunction is never isolated. It reflects deeper structural and neurological imbalance. Dr. Lynn teaches how to recognize and understand this connection in the Anatomy of Breastfeeding seminar.
