Does anyone else have latching problems with breast feeding? I had to give my three day old a bottle tonight of emergency formula, because I don't have my breast pump yet and he just can't latch onto my nipples and didn't eat for a long time 😢 makes me sad

@elijahsmomma, that's exactly how I felt I just had gotten home from the hospital yesterday and I couldn't shake the feelings 👎🏻 I hope it gets better girl
@junesmommy15, @wiccanmommy @cmbwalker @oliviasmama1211 thank you ladies 💕 I didn't realize my milk was trying to come in, and he was having trouble latching that's why and I didn't have my pump yet. Had to make my husband go buy a small one and he's a lot happier now ☺️
I had the same problem! I had to use a nipple shield. The nurses recommended it because Olivia wouldn't take my nipple at all. The have them at target 😘
I'm right there with you. I'm still in the hospital and don't have back up formula. so it makes me super sad that my baby might not be getting all he needs. not to mention since he wasn't latching correctly the first day, my nipples hurt so bad! best of luck momma!
Of your boobs are too swollen with milk they may not be able to get a good latch on the nipple. These ladies^^know what they are talking about 😆. You can also try to hand express some milk if you don't have your pump. Or try a warm compress on the area for a little bit before nursing to soften the breast so the nipple is more available. Good thing you had backup formula! I made sure we got some also! Best of luck!
it's very common. you should talk to a lactation consultant, they can see what's happening and help accordingly. babies and mom's have a learning curve when it comes to breastfeeding.
This is what I used to do; pump for about two minutes and then latch the baby. It will help that milk flow start and also protrude your nipple a bit.
Hi
I am into my 15 week now
But since last two days am not having good feeling....I just feel something is wrong inside wid d kid...all my symptoms r too less
Morning sickness is gone....Metallic taste of my tounge is also less....and I feel pain in my abdoman twice or thrice which is very minor though
What should i do i am very confused
Already have gone through 5 scans because of changing gynec
Just feel that untill i hear the heartbeat or see my kid i wont b ok....got sleepless nights
I have decided I'm not going to breast feed with my first😩 hopefully I change my mind
I really want to exclusively breast feed.. my baby doesn't latch well an i can't pump more than 4 oz a day. I was to stop using formula but I have no idea how to increase my supply no matter how many times I power pump, put baby to breast, pump every 2 hours. my supply never increases as a fact it's dropped I'm barely getting 2 oz a day now :'( I feel like my body is failing me

Hi ladies, well I had my baby two days ago but I still have no milk supply and I have to follow up with formula but we still have successful latches. Any tips on how to get my supply going I'm currently waiting for my.breast pump.
Yayy! Good to hear! Glad everything is going well.
