How long did the nursing strike last?

Question

Help! My baby has been on a nursing strike for 8 days with no end in sight! Tips appreciated!

Answer

My baby was on a nursing strike for over a month. I had to pump every 3-4 hours to keep my supply. I tried everything you can think of… switching out paci fast for boob, letting him have a half oz of milk from a bottle just to give him quick satisfaction enough to want to latch (he would just scream at my boob), different positions, different environments, nothing would help! Thankfully I stuck it out and one day he started gradually wanting boob. First it started out at night side laying, then slowly during the day. Now we are officially back to EBF! Just telling my story that even when you think there’s no end in sight, there is! My best advice is always always offer boob first no matter what. I would try 3-4 times before I would give him a bottle. If he cried, I would get up, walk around, and settle him then try again.

Answer

Is your baby not eating at all?
We haven’t experienced that YET 😳
