Infant Latch

Infant Latch is a biomechanical and behavioral component of breastfeeding in which the infant positions and attaches its mouth to the nipple–areolar complex to create an effective seal and oral configuration that enable efficient milk transfer while minimizing maternal nipple and breast trauma.
