I think giving my baby a pacifier is causing her not to latch properly and she's not emptying my breast fully...idk wat…

your welcome if you have any thing else to ask im here just msg me

@babyethansmommy, makes sense, thank u so much

its a really good brand is the only one ethan will take, ive tried them all and that one is the best, how I found out my nipple shape was right after he unlatched from feeding look at your nipple if it straight round and long them you know what types to buy and if it's short and flat so on and so on

@cray.xo, oh ok thanks

@babyethansmommy, thanks I'll try that. I'm using the soothies they give u in the hospital. I'm not sure wat nipple shape I have but I'm open to trying the mam brand pacifier

this is what it looks like.

the nipple shield helps the baby with latching when they have problems.

sometimes it comes down to the kind of paci you use, ethan is breastfed and I give him a paci everyday abd he latches perfectly I would say I'd your breastfeeding abd givubg a paci find one close to your nipple length and shape I use mam pacis because I have a flat nipple

@cray.xo, no, what does that do?

have you tried a nipple sheild?

I'm sorry I don't have any. I quit breast feeding I had to much trouble

@cray.xo, I pump while I'm at work, but when I'm home with her on the weekend, I nurse her from the breast

@martaboo, I know that now, any suggestions?

have you tried pumping? my baby doesn't latch for long and when she does she still doesn't empty my breasts, I've been strictly pumping for 3 days now, and it's going wonderful. I pump, as she eats the last bottle that I pumped, that way I have her next meal ready to go and she doesn't have to wait for me to get done pumping to eat

lactation consultants tell you a pacifier is a big no no. it dose cause problems.
