we made it to 1 month breastfeeding he latched like a pro after birth however I do us a shield for my right breast because I had surgery due to Mastitis in my second pregnancy and my boob was never the same after that I also pump milk so my s/o can help with feedings so I can rest I'm glad he has not had any issues with going from boob to bottle I am hoping to breastfeed for at least a year
