Ineffective Suckling: A Possible Consequence of Obstructive Positioning

Jane A. Morton, MD

Stanford University; Palo Alto Medical Clinic, 300 Homer Avenue, Palo Alto, CA 94301 USA.

Failure to thrive in breastfed babies frequently is attributed to inadequate lactation. In some cases, the origin of inadequate lactation may be ineffective suckling that obstructs milk flow. To support this conclusion, an infant who presented with failure to thrive was studied at the breast with magnetic resonance imaging.
