Pumping
I am 2 weeks postpartum and I have tried nursing but it doesn't go well Because baby's mouth is too small for nipples. I switched to full time pumping 3 days in and it's been a constant struggle. I need any advice! I tried a single electric, double electric, manual pump, and hand expressing. The last two work best. I have milk to the point is shoots out and leaks out as well. I can usually get about 3oz total after a lot of working at it and switching between sides a couple times. Baby is eating anywhere between 3 and 4oz now and so I'm worried I won't be able to breastfeed much longer. I am having uncontrolled let downs when I am getting ready to pump and I leaked everywhere. I have tried massaging and warm compresses too.
