Less than 2 weeks postpartum and I swear I'm falling apart. My baby won't nurse, won't latch at all no matter what I do, so I spend my life attached to a pump and I'm really feeling like a failure. My scalp itches SO badly I can't sleep at night.... This happened last pregnancy too and I have no idea why or how to make it stop, I've already scratched a raw spot on one side in my sleep. Ppd is kicking up despite my antidepressants that I started immediately after giving birth and my anxiety is through the roof. I have mastitis and my right boob is horribly red and swollen. Oh and I'm pretty sure I have a vaginal prolapse judging by the weird feeling, incontinence and what I saw in the mirror, but I can't get in to my ob till Friday. I'm so stressed out. I love babies, I want all the babies, but my body just falls apart more and more each pregnancy. Sorry just really need to vent, I'm so freaking exhausted and stressed out right now.

@sarataylor0906 I thought about that but I had express before I put him on and as soon as the nipple is in his mouth he just flat out quits trying. Even with a nipple shield hes only latched once. He struggles to get a good latch even on the bottle sometimes, I have to keep pulling it out and repositioning. The Dr's say he has no tongue tie and his lip tie "isn't bad" but something isn't right.

@cybilinside your milk flow might also be the reason, if your milk is coming out slow then that could be another reason why your baby wont latch on

@cybilinside hang in there mama! 😇 try pumping for 5 minutes then put her/him on the boob... threy dont want to latch most of the time because it takes a minute for the milk to come out
