If breastfeeding has felt awkward—like you’re always holding your breast in place, can’t see what your baby’s doing, or worry they can’t breathe—latching with larger breasts can feel especially frustrating. It’s not your fault, and you’re not doing anything wrong.
This 17-minute Go Deeper live video replay walks you through how to support a deep latch using your baby’s reflexes, how to stop holding your breast the entire time, and what to do when your baby’s face feels smushed. Let’s make latching simpler—even when things feel heavy (literally).

- ➤ What to try when you can’t see baby’s mouth or worry they’re smushed in
- ➤ How to support your baby’s reflexes without pushing or forcing
