Over the past week or two, I've come to suspect that Andrew and I are having a problem with forceful let-down and oversupply.  I read what kmom has to say on the topic, and we are hitting 5 of the 7 criteria listed (no clicking or biting).   So,  I have been "block nursing"  - that is, nursing from one side at a time and switching sides every few hours, instead of in the middle of a single feeding.  Also, if I know I am having a strong let-down, I take him off before he starts choking,  instead of waiting for him to unlatch himself.  He seems to get less angry that way.
Anyhow, I know some of my readers are professionals and/or experienced breastfeeders.  What do you think?
