Can latching issues affect breastmilk supply? How does one impact the other?

Hi Jen! I see that you are trying to understand if latching issues may affect breastmilk supply. The straight answer is that they do! Poor, incorrect and shallow latch means your baby isn't effectively removing the milk from your breasts. If this is done so regularly, your body gets the signal that it actually does not need to produce so much milk since there's milk "left" in the breasts. This will lead to a drop in your milk production and supply. The correct latch is one of the fundamental keys to keep a positive breastfeeding relationship going! Hope the above explains!
