My EBF baby now gets bottles of expressed milk since I went back to work last month. He has nipple confusion I think. Nursing and pumping is so painful now.
I only work 3 days a week, a few hours a day. The rest of the time he is only nursed. What can I do to help this situation? I’ve been applying coconut oil but they’re sore to the touch

What size nipple flow are you using for bottle? Baby’s get nipple confusion because of the flow of nipple is faster, they don’t have to work hard like when they are on breast. They have control of the flow when they are nursing versus bottle.
I’m not even sure. I just use those little avent bottles. I got them as like samples.... I really know nothing about bottles. I should’ve thought about this before going back to work.
You will have to make sure his latch is always correct. Put your nipple in his mouth and not the other way around. Don't be afraid to unlatch him when necessary. Kinda like retraining him so the muscle memory sticks.
If his latch is good you won't be sore immediately and after a few days
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Not only has he not responded, now I have to sit here worrying if something happened 😣😒
i even shaved (impossible task now) & put on cute underwear. we only have a few more days to get freaky before we can’t anymore for a while & he doesn’t even care ughhhh
So my bf went to work last night for 8:30pm (he has no set schedule) he texted me when he got there and now it's 7:40am and I haven't heard from him....his FB said he made it back to the warehouse 4hrs ago.....it only takes 2hrs max for him to get home...should I call his job?? I'm getting nervous (he doesn't have a phone , it only works on wifi)
Ladies what was your work schedule like while pregnant? I work 40 hours a week & have only 2 days off a week . Should I cut my hours back ?
Get slowest flow nipple, make sure whoever is feeding him latches him the same way he latched on to the breast.
