Breastfeeding

Hoffman Technique Question

This confuses me:

  Place a thumb on each side of the base of the nipple -- directly at the base of the nipple, not at the edge of the areola. Push in firmly against your breast tissue while at the same time pulling your thumbs away from each other.

How do you pull your thumbs away from each other and push in firmly at the same time.  Anyone have a better way to describe this?

More importantly, did anyone have success with this?

    noticed you are pregnant

    are you trying to work on inverted nipples, if so a nipple shell is a good idea to begin wearing now to break the adhesions under the nipple.

     

    I have one 'flat-ish' nipple that I am trying to work on before he gets here.  I'll try the nipple shell.  

    Thanks!
