Mom guilt is real. We had a really traumatic delivery and nothing went according to plan, but I could at least look forward to breastfeeding. Well. My LO is struggling with breastfeeding and we’ve been waiting to see a lactation consultant again to work on her latch more. This past weekend is a rough one for me emotionally and I’ve been pumping instead since this weekend just to save all our sanity and I’m barely pumping enough each time to get through the next bottle. I wish breastfeeding came easier or I could pump more. I’m afraid I’ll have to give this up too if I can’t figure something out and I feel like she is gonna be missing out on things she needs :/

We try to latch a few times a day still but it just gets too painful to do for extended periods of time because she won’t latch deep and ends up mashing my nipple the whole time, which effects her ability to pull milk out since everything’s all pinched off.
@ambrbratz, aww I can imagine how stressful that is. I know you’re waiting to see your LC but look on YouTube in the meantime. There’s loads of different “tutorial” type videos on different holds. I always got on best with the rugby hold for a deeper latch. Stay really well hydrated and try not to stress, you’re doing your best that’s all you can ask of yourself a
It happens and it's very hard and stressful. My older 2 I couldn't nurse and felt bad. My 4 yr old I nursed for almost 3 yrs. I'm hoping I can nurse this baby.
Good luck!!
Hey I’m 26 with two children #myfirstpost
Okay I’ll be real and explained why I joined, I didn’t know I could be looked up or anyone would actually see this post, I was informed someone I know has been stealing pics and I came to look and see what’s going on if any of mine were on there or anyone else I knew. I just typed until it let me post since it was required before I could look around on the app.
I got my free medela breast pump today ! Does anybody know if using it for nipple stimulation will help !?!
I’m not breastfeeding .

I’m just discovering more weird Hollywood stuff now. I’m still fairly new to these things. I need to open up my eyes more and dig deeper to find more crazy stuff.
@lifewithlynnieandwill88, I just found this out today and had no idea. Now it makes sense why that guy isaac kappy “committed suicide”, when he came out and called him out and other people from Hollywood.😱

Happy World Breastfeeding Week! Please share your breastfeeding stories and tips!
Hi everyone! @kimberlyyyy_the-preemie-mom here. For today's chat we're going to talk about breastfeeding and pumping in honor of World Breastfeeding Week! Both can seem complicated or stressful, but remember you have lots of support here! With my first son I had things going against us for breastfeeding.
I wish I knew back when he was younger that we could have still tried! With my second...
Keep putting baby on the breast, even if you then give a bottle. It’ll help to keep your supply going and regulate how much you need to produce.
