that scary moment after birth when u need a no 2..... still going with the breast feeding... my god every time he feeds my stomach has the most incredible pain..
I did as well some babies the boob just isn't enough and the midwifes will tell you about why you can't because of nipple confusion and lack of milk but it's shit I've been doing it for 4 weeks now and it's fine xx
thanx @holliesinead @sweetsesame @suzie80 I have given him formula too. but made sure he sucked off me till he pulled away.. he's a hungry boy xx
By tomorrow you may wake up on watermelons for boobs then baby will be drowned in milk lol as long as your solely bf baby will be getting what it needs as ur body regulates itself and starts to release the right amounts of milk. Early days you can be attached to baby most of the time.
Yeah breastfeeding can be like that. I did it for nearly two years 🙈 when she was a newborn she would always fall asleep on the boob and feed every two hours, they also have stages where the cluster feed. At the moment baby is trying to let your body know how much milk to produce x
I cried from the pain but it will make your stomach flatter quicker and return to normal and yeah it means your breastfeeding correctly as its all contracting your insides some babies are just extra hungry and feed much more xx
thanx @sweetsesame @holliesinead that's a good tip.. its just awful... never knew about it b4... does that mean baby is actually getting something out..?? he never seems satisfied xx
It's your uterus contracting Hun and going back to normal size, not very pleasant I know but it'll get you back into shape quickly x
thanx @holliesinead he quite enjoys the boob.. so I don't think he will get confused... if there's food ant they r hungry, I'm sure they will latch to anything xx
