Latching
My son latches perfectly on my left boob (perfect open mouth, fish lips etc) but won’t latch well on my right boob no matter what I do.. he just refuses to open wide on it. I always point nipple up, tickle nose & skin under nose/top lip. Body & head properly supported. Nothing. Any ideas? (7 weeks old)

i had this issue i used nippe covers it allows him to learn to latch better without leaving your nipples raw and painful
@miryam we just weaned off of them :)
@Tattianne I’ll change it up see how we go :)

Maybe he doesn't like the position? I'm having the same problem and the lactation consultant told me to try different holds and see if it makes a difference (the football hold works great for us and so does side lying)
