My New Schedule
I met with a lactation consultant today, and here's what I have to do since my daughter isn't gaining weight:
Before breast feeding, do a tongue exercise with the baby 5X. She sucks on her tongue and isn't latching properly as a result.
Put my baby to the breast every two hours for ten minutes each breast.
After breast feeding, pump both breasts for ten minutes each.
Give baby 1.5 ounces of formula to supplement after every breast feeding.
My supply is way low. She's not getting anything from me, so the plan is stimulate, stimulate, stimulate until my supply comes back.
Half a day in, and I'm ready to quit. How can I possibly keep this up without going insane?
