Need help I'm trying breast feed my daughter and she was doing good at frist then stopped my milk was not in yet so. had to formal feed well I got my milk and now she will nt take the boob but if I pump and feed her the bottle she will feed that why. What do I do?? How long do I have with out putting her on the boob before a dry up??
The problem is she's used to the bottle, you have to basically start all over. But because she doesn't remember you have to try to nurse before she gets really hungry otherwise she will just get too frustrated. Just keep at it and she will get used to eating from the breast
I pumped frist to get some relief and then tryed the boob frist before the bottle but I could not get her to latch at all did both for about 10 minutes trying to get her to latch but still nothing.
I had a hard time getting my son to latch if I was engorged, could that be an issue?
Opinions on hungrier baby milk? My girl is drinking well over 30 oz in 24 hours. I tried her with water inbetween feeds but she just won't settle in till she has milk as she's hungry not thirsty. She's awake like 18 hours a day 😭
My baby girl does not let me do anything all day 😭 I'm lucky if everything is done before my s.o gets home , she cried so I pick her up to feed her and change her diaper and once she's on my breast she eats and I burp her put her down and she'll cry I get her again and she's on my breast not even latched on just smelling my boobs 😭 I'm like girl really lmao she wants me to carry her or be with her all day , girl I wish I could lmao

is it wrong to be frustrated that my daughter acts like she can't do certain things with out my help. she plays dumb a lot and I wish I could be like no girl show what you know. she acts like she can't trace or match shapes so shes ask for "mommy finger" to help her so I barely hold her hand and she magically can do it but if I dont hold her hand she just scribbles and acts like she doesnt know
the pic is how she traces when I'm "helping her" otherwise it'll just be scribbles all over the page
I can't take it anymore! Haley (yes my 1mth old and no I wasn't able to go through this "joy" of nursing my older daughter, Molly) has been screaming non stop for 6hrs! All she wants to do is eat and I can't have her attached to me all day, everyday! She has wanted to eat every hr on the hr for the past 3hrs! I put her in her room so I don't scream at her but I just can't take it!
my daughter is 6 months . I can start feeding her gerber and cereal in her milk . how do I do feedings since she still is on formula
Also sometimes it takes a really long time to latch. practice every day. It is hard when you feel like you are being told "no" or "I don't want it" by someone, but your baby just doesn't get it and isn't saying no,, they just don't understand. Keep being persistent and trying!!!
