Learned behaviors: start at 6 mos. Till then, what she wants is what she needs. Burp frequently, as she swallows air when crying. Let her finish nursing on first side first. Call her Dr. tomorrow for appt. & referral to a lactation specialist. Video the feeds to take with you. Wipe out her mouth with a soft cloth after last feed, put her in her own bed, on her back, drowsy but awake, for sleep consolidation.
