I've been STRUGGLING getting this breastfeeding thing down and I feel defeated. My baby is STILL losing weight!! :( he was born at 7#9 and dropped to 6#14. I was able to get him back up to 7#6 but now, he's back down to 7#3. Doctor said I have to supplement after every feed...
when I took him to the lactation consultant today and he just SCREAMED the whole time on the breast. So frustrated, like there was nothing in there. I felt horrible. Have I been starving my baby this whole time?! So I was crying. We got home and I gave him a bottle of pumped breast milk and made sure he got a FULL feed. Now it's time for him to eat again, and again when I put him to the breast he's crying and pulling off. So I assumed that my milk supply is just gone. So I made him a bottle and came in here and milk is definitely coming out!! So why would he be acting that way on the breast?? What do I do? What's going on? Someone help me please 😭😰❤️

@mahlia, @varubio925, thank you, I'll try that. It's weird tho cuz he's just started this behavior. We were doing good...
definitely with the stress tho. And it's a cycle for sure cuz the more it happens the more I'm stressed and then of course it happens more

Yes hand express first, but also try to be calm and not stress. Babies sense it and them back off.

I second the vote for hand espressing before and even during the first couple sips. My kiddy struggled on the breast until my husband assisted me with soft compressions during latching. The first couple gulps gave her the idea of what she should be doing. It didn't take long after that for her to create the association.

Try hand expressing a little right before you try to latch him

And it might be bc you're feeding with a bottle :/ they say it's best to stay away from bottles & pacifiers for the first6 weeks if you want to exclusively breast feed to avoid nipple confusion. You should still keep trying though. My daughter took a whole two weeks of constant crying and trying to go on the boob. It's just as new for them as it is for us.

Make use of pillows for both you and the kiddy. Your SO can help you espress so you can concentrate on holding your LO for their maximum comfortability. Hope that helps!
