sorry if this is tmi but my baby girl is 7 days old I've been attempting to breastfeed but it doesn't seem like she wants to latch on Everytime. I mean she will for a few minutes here and there and the other times she goes right to sleep. anyone else have this problem? or have any suggestions as to helping her latch on??

Try undressing her and rubbing her feet with a wet towel. Some babies are sleepy nursers. just gotta keep at it

thanks. I'll try that. I just feel like I'm not doing something right. @showersoverflowers

No no! its totally normal. just have to keep trying. switch sides after about 5 minutes as well. If she's having more troubles latching (actually latching not just staying awake) try a nipple shield

keep her stimulated to keep her away if she is starting to nod off you play with her feet or hands and keep her up
