Feeling so much better about breastfeeding... I think I may have figured out what works best for me and little lady. Was finally able to pump a whole ounce 👍 I haven't been pumping until yesterday because everyone keeps telling me skin to skin and babe on the boob are best. I have been trying my hardest. As many of you know, it is absolutely exhausting. I have been proud of myself this time around 😊 I felt prepared mentally and have been holding on and in a good mood since she has been here 👍 but two nights ago she started to get frustrated while nursing 💔that is where I fell apart. I need to know I am doing something good for my little one. I felt pretty defeated talking to her doc today but came to some realizations. All of my children latch on so, so well! I love it but they all have massive suction power. They all destroyed my nipples making breast feeding agonizing. So that next day I decided not to give up and pump what I can, feed it to her and top her off with formula. Well it looks like we might be getting somewhere 👍I am actually starting to produce more. I am in a better mood because my baby seems to be happier more 😍 I know skin to skin and babe in boob are best but I actually feel I connect so much better with her since my head isn't focused on making sure she is getting enough. I know she is and it's a huge relief 😊😊😊😊
