Jody,
Thanks for reaching out to us here at MilkOnTap! There could be several causes for shallow latching to include positioning, tongue tie, and overactive let down, among others. It’s best to reach out to an IBCLC to have an expert evaluate the exact cause and to offer specific help. We see patients 7 days a week.
