@jaclyn000, you know what i did not think about her being latched wrong. I will have to make sure i watch that

If it's your nipples in particular that are painful, check her latch and make sure that her lips kind of splayed outwards, not pursed inwards. You could also try a nipple shield. Also, WIC offers free breastfeeding consultations in my area, they might in yours as well.

Absolutely! Feel free to ask anytime 😀

thank you as well @lilkountryma

@cubanese, thank you so much. this is alot harder than expected but motivating at the same time

I've been having the same problems

@cubanese, @lilkountryma you guys are great and have helped me to! thank you

Ok @lilkountryma

@cubanese, so how do i know she is full?? I do know after i feed her she gets hiccups but still wants to nurse

I'm going to message you

Have you checked her latch? Your nipples should not hurt from nursing. Are they cracked?

@lilkountryma, yes ma'am i am massaging hubby even bought the hot compress and they are still sore and hurt. i really try to let her feed as long as she want but the last few days my nipples have been hurting so bad i want to cry amd scream

Don't pull her off. Let her feed for as long as she wants mama. Some babies take longer than others. Are you massaging your breasts? The pain could be from ducts that are starting to clog. The more you nurse your production will pick up and the stream thing isn't true. mine comes out in drops not streams and I have a healthy supply. Yes oatmeal cookies count. You can even make your own lactation cookies for really cheap and its super easy. If she has at least 5 wet diapers and is pooping than shes getting enough. Breastfed babies can go 3-4 days without pooping

she has at least 5 wet diapers
but i dont think she is getting enough because she show sighs of hunger after i pull her off of me. plus my breast are extremly sore making more hard to feed her
