@shelyndra, i had issues with my first child too but i was told that all the things i was doing to try to help was actually causing me to lose alot of my milk. i was pumping more than i was breastfeeding because my son wouldnt wake up to eat. i was using a nipple shield. his feedings would get interrupted or hed fall sleep and my right side never really took.
@shelyndra, i started supplementing but he preferred the bottle of formula cause he could get it faster and easier so he quit latching. im wanting to try getting my supply back so i did research and i found this lactation aid. its very helpful if youre still wanting to breast feed.
