Latching in Real Life: Latching with Large Breasts

If you have larger breasts, latching can feel harder — your shoulders ache, your back gets sore, and traditional positions don’t always feel safe when you can’t see your baby’s face. But harder doesn’t mean impossible. In this 6-minute unscripted coaching session, you’ll see how small shifts in positioning, timing, and reflexes help a real parent and baby find a deeper, more comfortable latch.

 

What's inside this What it Really Looks Like session:

  • ➤ How to position your baby without feeling like you need three hands
  • ➤ How to ease shoulder and back strain while latching
  • ➤ What to do when traditional positions don’t feel safe because you can’t see your baby’s face
  • ➤ How to tell if your baby is truly latched deeply — even when it’s harder to see
  • ➤ Small shifts that let reflexes create a more stable, comfortable latch

See what latching with larger breasts really looks like — with a real parent, a real baby, and a real body, all in real time.
