Pain during breastfeeding is a common challenge, often stemming from a poor latch and insufficient milk transfer. To address this, it's important to ensure the baby's mouth is wide open, with a deep, asymmetric latch. Proper positioning, such as nose to nipple, is also crucial before the baby latches. Support options like virtual or in-person sessions are available for those needing assistance with breastfeeding difficulties.
