Lactation consultant: As they grow, breastfeeding babies may experience changes in body size and muscle tone that will change the nursing experience. If your baby is having trouble latching on, try a different position. If there is a lactation consultant available, they are highly trained in all facets of breastfeeding and can likely help you sort out this problem.
