Many babies latch easily — but for others, it takes time, patience, and a little extra support. 💛 Whether it’s due to tongue-tie, a cleft lip, or just a learning curve, breastfeeding challenges are more common than you think.

If you’re struggling with latching or feeding, you are not alone — and it’s okay to ask for help. Lactation consultants, pediatricians, and supportive communities can make a big difference.

✨ Every baby is different, and some just need a little more time and guidance. You’ve got this.

Breastfeeding should not hurt. 🤱💬
If you're experiencing pain, it's often a sign of a latch issue — not something you just have to “push through.”

Your comfort matters. Addressing latch problems early can prevent long-term discomfort and make feeding a more peaceful experience for both you and your baby. 💛

🤱✨ The Key to Pain-Free Breastfeeding: A Good Latch!

A poor latch can cause ni**le pain, lower milk supply, and ineffective feeding—even if your baby seems to be nursing. A deep latch means your baby takes in a big portion of the ar**la, with their lips flanged out like a fish. 🐟💙

If you're experiencing pain or your little one isn’t gaining weight well, it might be time to adjust the latch! Need help? Reach out to a lactation consultant for support. 💕
