& he's finally latched on without a shield! And he does so much better without it. With the shield he kept unlatching and it was hard to get him back on. Now that he doesn't use the shield he stays latched and eats for 20-30 mins! This momma is so happy! He didn't eat his first 2 days of life cause he wouldn't latch and I refused to give him formula! Finally I had to start pumping so he'd eat. So now we are nursing and pumping. I'm just so happy I can give him my milk! 😊😊🍼🍼
My son loves the bottle more than my breast 😫 he gets so fussy when I give him my breast but has no issue with with bottle. As long as his eating I’m okay with it. I’ve been pumping and I hate pumping!!
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Am I a bad mom ?
So since baby Charlie had jaundice in the hospital they suggested I give him donor breast milk because he was way to sleepy to eat from me and he had lost about a pound in a day and a half. So now we are having problems latching, I think it's somewhat to do with my nipples and partly because he was so used to the bottle. Well now he's almost a week old and he will not eat from me at all. So my lactation consultant and I decided I'll pump in addition to trying to breast feed. ...
Those who use nipple shields...how do you like them? i can't get Gunner to latch on and he always gets so frustrated & starts to cry and cry... :( it makes me sad i cant get him to latch...so iv been pumping and putting it in bottles..

I had to share this picture of Raptor! He is still doing amazing! He has lost a little bit of weight but that's expected! Yesterday was our second time trying to breast feed and he latched and sucked!!! It was so amazing and I am so proud of him!
Thank you! It's def been a struggle ! But I'm determined! @aguilarfamily
