Whenever I breastfeed my lo, she is unae to locate my nipple immediately. She may turn to the wrong direction, or even if I place the nipple on her lips for her to latch on easily, she will still take a while to fumble through before being able to suckle successfully. This resulted in her getting frustrated and irritated. Is this due to poor latching, or any way for improvement? Thanks.

This happens to me during the 1st few weeks of life for my LO only. After dat, he will look for it rather and am usually the one who is too slow for him. Give them some time to get used to the smell and they will eventually find it themselves.
