Large breasts can sometimes present challenges for proper latching during breastfeeding.
Causes
The size and shape of large breasts may make it difficult for some babies to reach and latch onto the nipple effectively.
Solutions
- Lactation Consultant: Consulting a lactation consultant can be extremely helpful. They can assess latching technique, suggest positioning strategies, and provide guidance on optimizing breastfeeding success.
- Supportive Products: There are specially designed breastfeeding pillows and bras that can help position the baby for a better latch.
