Breastfeeding nightmare!
So my baby is 5 days old, and i had very little help in the hospital with latching him on, so by the time i left the hospital my breast were already damaged, to where every feeding makes me breakdown in tears because of the pain, and he has a little jaundice to add to it, so now the doc has me feeding him every hour to hour and a half, i thought i was gonna do good breastfeeding only but i am to the point of wondering if i should mix formula to let my breast heal, i am pumping here and there but with him eating so often i have very little milk to pump and cant get ahead of his feedings, it go to a point of where my breast were so damaged that i bleed a little on the pads, i did go to a lactation specialist yesterday and she did help me to where he can latch on better now but i still hurt from my soreness. Any advice or tips on how i can avoid the formula and on how i can heal quicker? Thanks in advance lady's.
