I'm nearly 3 weeks into breastfeeding my newborn and I'm starting to have a really hard time with it... mainly emotionally. I feel like she's not getting enough to satisfy herself so she's constantly wanting to feed and I'm emotionally worn down and exhausted from it... my husband sees that I'm really having a difficult time and I hate to say it but I'm really starting to dislike it. I know it's the best thing for her... I don't know what to do. my husband keeps telling me to quit but my mom keeps pressuring me to stick with it. I'm not struggling with postpartum but I feel like that's what it's leading to...

I actually just spoke with a lactation consultant since I'm stuck in the hospital & she said it was completely normal for babies to want to breast feed all the time. It doesn't mean you're not producing enough milk. Completely okay! But if you're feeling that way, then do what's best for yourself & the baby. Fed is best, no matter how! Good luck ☺️

Does she use a pacifier? she could be getting enough just using your boob as confort. cluster feeding can be it too but it can go on for months, doesn't necessarily have to be during a growth spurt.

It's normal to feel overwhelmed. Keep letting baby nurse as often as needed. That will help with milk supply. Just relax when you nurse your baby. It gets easier momma! You can do it!

They cluster feed when they're about to have a growth spurt. I think that's the term used anyways. It's been almost five years since I breastfed.

Babies eat a lot so I'm sure the little one is getting enough and girl don't be hard on yourself I didn't even last that long it hurt to much I had to stop and formula feed
