I am unhappy with my MiL. I know it is unreasonable right now. She was trying to help and let me get some sleep. Still. She didn't come wake me soon enough and now I have a screaming overly hungry newborn Wren that won't latch properly.... ugh.
mine were rly sore after the cracking healed its taken about 2-3 weeks but now their to the point Where it hurts but its bearable if it dnt get better id tlk to my Dr if i were u @january10th
@kate0329 okay I mean I remember them being sore with my second baby but this is like a lot it hurts pretty bad I'm scared to even feed him, I still feed him before he gets to hungry but i have this fear of when he starts nursing it hurts so bad so I'm trying to find a fix I have a feeling I'm doing something right because they were cracked they're better now just really really sore when he nurses
@wrens_mommy, Yea all the nurses told me his latch was good & I had them check several times so I guess maybe I just have to get used to it..
@kate0329, pumping is slow going right now. I have to go find a proper sized guard thingy because it isn't expressing the milk right (plus being painful). I have about an ounce and a half in the fridge right now. Also I was advised to avoid introducing bottles as much as possible for the first 4 weeks of life. 😐
have you tired pumping for when eithers are watching the baby?
@january10th yes their gonna be sore thats normal ur not doing anything wrong
Yeah. I think it's making the adjustment to the latch, since the consultant I talked to said her latch was good and it doesn't hurt the whole time. I've escaped cracked nipples so far, thankfully. @january10th
:'( that is the worst, I'm sorry you have to go thru that.. you probably aren't in the mood to answer questions but are your nipples sore? mine are & I just don't know what I'm doing wrong I've been looking stuff up online about sore nipples & it says that if your nipples are sore something isn't right I had cracked nipples but that is long gone now it just hurts for like the first minute or 30 seconds. do you have this problem?
I mean it hurts when I get him latched but once he's on it just feels like a little tug its just the initial latch on that hurts after that were smooth sailing @kate0329 but I was just gonna make an appointment with the lactation consultant at my hospital see of she can give me any tips
