I've been breastfeeding my son since day one. But now we are almost a month in and I'm miserable. My…

he is latching properly?

@mommybump2016, he doesn't latch, I have to pump to feed him from a bottle, all the lactation consultants tried to force him on me that he won't latch

pumping can most definitely hurt. especially if you don't have the right size flanges. (or whatever they're called) personally I had a really really rough time when I first started breastfeeding the whole first month was absolutely miserable but I promise it gets better. Honestly I think I'd go see another lactation consultant because the once you get your child to latch on right or to even learn to latch it makes life so much easier and so much better

is your pump suction thing the correct size? only reason im asking if because I don't think you should still be in pain after a month, are you still in touch with an lactation consultant?

@katrina12143, @mommybump2016 it didn't start to hurt until recently

maybe a clogged duct ? try a warm compress after you pump and see if that helps. I'm sorry I'm really no help. I hope you figure it out:)

and don't feel bad if you change your mind and go to formula. as long as baby and mommy are happy that's all that matters!,

Your breast size may have changed and your flanges aren't the right size or you could be experiencing a clogged milk duct. I'm going through this right now and it is so painful and makes me want to give up after 9 months

@junesmommy15, flanges are right size and no clogged duct I went to Urgicare and they sent me to there consultant

Ok. What did they say?
