I had a ton of problems breastfeeding! my daughter wouldn't latch, and I didn't have a good milk supply initially because of that. Lactation consultants are a godsend! I worked very closely with them to boost my milk production and try to get my baby to feed from me. She rarely latched but when she did it wasn't painful, that was before she was teething though so I don't know if it will hurt later on. And wound up giving up on her latching and just pumped and gave her my milk in a bottle. your colostrum will usually already be there when you give birth or shortly afterwards. your milk comes in 4 days later. starting breast feeding can be hard but stick with it if that's what you wanna do :) its a learning process for both you and the baby.

it's only a little sore at first, it's not that bad. unless you have a bad latch & then it can hurt really bad. there should be a lactation specialist of some sort at delivery, to help you out throughout your hospital stay.

My son latched on immediately. So, no troubles with that. It did hurt for me initially but I bought nipple shields and that helped tremendously. Initially your body produces colostrum and after that usually 2-3 days your milk comes in. When you deliver they send you a lactation nurse to assist you if you have any troubles.

#mombassadorchat Happy World Breastfeeding Week! Please share your breastfeeding stories and tips! Hi everyone! @kimberlyyyy_the-preemie-mom here. For today's chat we're going to talk about breastfeeding and pumping in honor of World Breastfeeding Week! Both can seem complicated or stressful, but remember you have lots of support here! With my first son I had things going against us for breastfeeding. I wish I knew back when he was younger that we could have still tried! With my second son I was determined to breastfeed, and even though he was born 11 weeks early I wasn't going to let that stop us from trying to breastfeed! For 7 weeks I pumped every 2 1/2-3 hours on the dot to establish and maintain my milk supply. When your little one is born early they usually need time to master sucking, swallowing, and breathing so I wasn't able to nurse right away. When my son was 33 weeks gestational (so 4 weeks old) we were finally able to latch on, and he did great! By 36 weeks gestational we had successfully started breastfeeding, and today marks 21 months of actual at-breast breastfeeding for us! I am passionate in trying to help moms-to-be and moms with breastfeeding and/or pumping, but I support moms who choose not to or for other reasons cannot breastfeed. Remember, I mentioned I didn't breastfeed my first son. I understand both sides. Breastfeeding isn't always easy, but I believe it's at least worth trying! Please help me celebrate World Breastfeeding Week by sharing your tips, questions, concerns, product recommendations, or anything else breastfeeding and pumping related!
