Any of you mamas have tips on breastfeeding ? I tried with my daughter but I had major postpartum depression and cried about everything (it was horrible) . My daughter would latch sometimes and sometimes she wouldnt & All I would do is cry so thats why it didnt work . I really want to do it this time so any tips are welcome . Thanks In Advance
meet with a lactation consultant as soon as you can after birth. make sure baby latches properly. it takes determination and its rough but sooooooo worth it in the long run. buy Lanolin nipple cream for if they start to get dry or cracked buy nursing pads, tank tops, and bras. such life savers lol. if you plan to EBF but not pump then it's very time consuming but that can be your special time with baby. if you pump buy storage bags to freeze. lansinoh are the best in.my opinion. can't give you a preference on bottles if you pump because baby will choose bottle. but MAM works for me. You aren't supposed to give a paci for 4-6 weeks until your baby has established nursing well it can cause nipple confusion. also your milk is established around then so you aren't suppose to pump until then. Google pace feeding. anything else I may can help with feel free to message me
