Hello ladies, I need some advice. I have been nursing my 3 week old baby girl and for the past week I've had an overactive flow, where my precious girl chokes, cries, and scream like you wouldn't believe. I've tried different positions, like laying flat on my back to go against gravity, I tried releasing the letdown on a towel then nursing her but it doesn't work. I've tried pumping for a few minutes then nursing her and it works for a few minutes but then she gets upset. Has anyone experienced this? Is there something I can do to make nursing more pleasant for her. Worried she is going to go on a nursing strike. 🙁

My baby does the choke then cry thing. When I am feeding her I listen for her breathing to change then I pull her away, stretch out the nipple, she will let go of it becomes too much.

this happened to me with my son. i was over producing which is why i had a heavy let down. i stopped pumping & switched some feedings with milk i had frozen for about 2 or 3 days. i stopped when i noticed he was no longer crying. just be careful not to let your supply drop too much. 3 dayz max! once my son got older & was able to handle the let down i started power pumping again so he had milk to drink while i was at work.
