Wow, sounds like things are right on schedule. :-)
Glad to hear the latch is good. I actually have a disagreement with the LC; I think when the latch is bad (such as the turned in lip) you need to start over, rather than try to pull out the lip. On the other hand, I remember distictly hearing this advice from my LC and thinking "No fucking way. Once the kid is latched and getting milk, no way I am voluntarily going to go through the whole screaming-painful latch again because of a tucked in lip."
(On the other hand, with the third baby/second birth, I followed all the advice I didn't follow the first time round and...wouldn't you know it...the sore nips were over in half the time. Go figure.)
