I was blessed to have a great nurse and lactation consultant who observed the first few times I nursed. It's mom's (and baby's) decision, so please don't force the issue when you dont know what is going on with them. It's not "natural" for every mom and baby. It's not pleasant (engorgement, mastitis, latching issues, PAIN) all the time.
Just support mom in whatever she decides to do. And offer to burp the baby.
I am a big supporter of breastfeeding, but I know my limitations. Formula, boob juice, whatever, so long as baby and mom are doing well is all that should matter to anyone involved.
