alright breastfeeding mamas i need some help and some encouragement. So i havent Bf or pumped milk for my baby at all since birth. Last week i had a mustard seed size dribble when i squeezed my nip and my LC told me that i could still BF cause there's still milk. My baby is 2m as of tuesday. I squeeze my nips now and nothing comes out so ive been dry nursing to hopefully get my milk to come in and Holy hell does it hurt she has such a powerful suck i really dont know why i didnt try harder to BF her. i feel hopeless now what else can i do to bring my milk back in ?? Another thing is she doesn't take thw areola in her mouth either shes just sucking on my nips which is probably why it hurts so bad any tips to get her to latch onto more of the areola?

i was discouraged because she would get agitated when i tried to give her my breast and spit it out i have flat/inverted nips and they wouldn't stay erect and she was used to the bottle since birth because she wasn't getting anything from my boob but i think a huge facqtor was because my Mom kept telling me not to because i wasnt eating much (literally once or twice a day if im lucky) and that i would give her gas. but i eat a lot more now because i get more sleep so i want to do it @cubanese

sandwich (squeeze together) right above your areola so she can latch on to more then just your nipple

Get her to open wide and do what amberr said. Some find that their supply goes up with supplements, it's your choice, I got brewers yeast for like $7. I like making boobie bites out of oats. @milans_muva
