exclusively for about six months. In fact, most mothers produce more than enough milk. Unfortunately, outdated hospital routines based on bottle feeding still predominate in too many health care institutions and make breastfeeding difficult, or even impossible, for too many mothers and babies. For breastfeeding to be properly well established, a good start in the early few days can be crucial. Admittedly, even with a not-so-good start, many mothers and babies still manage. The trick to breast feeding is getting the baby to latch on well. A baby who latches on properly, gets milk with ease. A baby who latches on poorly has more difficulty getting milk, and especially so if the supply is low. A poor latch is similar to giving a baby a bottle with a nipple hole that is too small - the bottle is full of milk, but the baby cannot access it without difficulty.. When a baby is latching on poorly, he may also cause the mother to experience pain in the nipple. And if the baby does not get milk easily, he will usually stay on the breast for long periods, thus aggravating the pain for the mother. Unfortunately anyone can claim that the baby is latched on well, even if he isn't. Too many people who should know better just don't have a clue on what a good latch is.
