Ladies did n e of ur newborns not eat at all in the first day at the hospital....my son has only latched on one time since he has been out and the nurse here is forcing him like literally Holding his head and pushing him onto my breast and making him cry I keep explaining to her that he just isn't hungry yet....he doesn't even want the bottle.....he just keeps falling asleep.....
I'm patient this nurse isn't 😕 and she is annoying the hell out of me I wanna request a new one lol @akelly16
if he was just circumsized I'm sure he's wanting nothing to do with anything right now... they scream and cry during that procedure and they get all worked up so he's def. too tired to be forced to eat...just be patient
She was making him cry holding his head and forcing like oh he has to eat....he will eat when he is hungry let him take in the world first....it was upsetting me....@nurseriri i am soo In love....I had this feeling like I was gonna wake up and he wasn't going to be here next to me but he definitely was 💙👶🏽😁🙈
@disa_nicole, tell her to relax. She should know better. Leave lil man alone. How you're feeling tho? In love I'm sure
@akelly16, He turns his head and does the same even when I tried with a pacifier just to see if it was Bc my boobs got big....the nurse literally is squeezing milk out of my breast and it's not working
That's what I'm saying the lady is forcing me I said he isn't even a full 24hrs old yet and he was circumcised earlier the boy is tired let him relax he already pooped once and peed twice just off my one latch last night when I got into the room.....@nurseriri @gabbi96
@disa_nicole, Ethan slept most of the time but would definitely wake to take the breast. Why are you giving bottle? Give him some time he's only couple hours old. Still adjusting to being outside.
they would hold her head and force her to take the nipple I was worried they were being too ruff and I cried.
yes the first day I also had trouble , they wanted me to make her eat every two hours and it was so frustrating because she didn't wanna eat every two hours . she wanted to eat when she was ready . but they would make me wake her up and try . I was so worried and overwhelmed but now that I'm home and she's a week old , trust me she eats when she's hungry. don't stress sweetie . it will all be okay.
I literally didn't get him to successfully latch or eat until right before I went home and the nurses stood over me and kept track of how long he latched each time... I pumped what I could with a hand pump the hospital gave me. you might want to ask for a nipple shield. it makes it easier for them to latch so they don't have to work as hard
my baby didn't either... he was soooo sleepy he just wanted to sleep..he would move the nipple around in his mouth a little and then fall asleep..they kept tugging on his arm and tickling his feet to try to wake him up but he just didn't want anything to do with it and would cry
my son did the same exact thing!! I got so mad at the nurses! they pretty much forced his face into my boob and upset him so much. they even threatened me the second day that if he didn't nurse or eat anything they weren't going to let me take him home 😢 it came down to them bullying me into giving him formula and I was so mad because it upset his stomach and he stayed up all night crying
Yeah girl I was the same way...good thing they change when their shift is over!!! he will eat when he's ready too...poor guy I'm sure he doesn't like the nurse either!
