Is there a certain age in a baby's development when latch problems are more common?

Hi Laura! Breastfeeding / latching issues are most common during newborn days, usually the first 2-4 weeks when both mother and baby are getting used to this new bonding activity! It does take a lot of practice to get it right for both. There may be certain phases of development when baby may tend to nurse more. This shall not be confused for having latching issues, especially if the mother does not observe the usual common signs of a poor latch, such as pain during breastfeeding, heavy breasts after nursing, clogged ducts etc. Hope this clarifies!
