breastfeeding with flat nipples is the worst. I'm glad she's eating what I can produce and pump but I hate that even with all that pumping my nipples won't pull out enough for her to latch. I had also read somewhere that your breast milk changes depending on your baby's saliva so I try to latch her just so that I know my body is doing all it can for her. it's just so frustrating

Have you tried nipple shields?

@sarahemccormick, sadly yes and she's still too weak to pull anything out when she sucks :(

Girl get you some nipple shields and a nipple vacuum I think it's called you put it on your nipples and squeeze a bulb and it pulls them out. I had flat nipples my entire life and after I had my daughter I wanted to breastfeed and was terrified I wouldn't but they sent me home with nipple shields and my husband bought me the nipple vacuum thing and let's just say this next baby won't have any problems with my nipples lol but I'm serious

@erin.c, It will definitely get them babies pulled out if used consistently and mine stayed no more flat nipples here
