HELP?! Since Ro was in the nicu and was introduced to bottles (without my knowledge) before he was introduced to the breast, he would only latch using a nipple shield. Now he won't take the nipple at all and even gets fussy about the shield... Since I'm using the shield and my nipples aren't getting the same stimulation, my milk supply has dropped to a scary level. What do I do?!

I would make an appt with lac consult asap. see if they can get baby latched again. until then you can keep putting him to breast to stimulate hormones.
