Refusing the breast
So I went back to work about 4 weeks ago and my baby started refusing the breast this week. At first I though it was because she was distracted because she'll initially latch, suck a few times, then pop off. I've tried everything that would make her less distracted but she literally isn't budging. I tried earlier today to get her to feed again and she did the same thing and screamed whenever I attempted to re-latch her. This is seriously breaking my heart. I'm not ready to stop breastfeeding. I love the bonding between my daughter and I through it. Makes me so sad. I've been having to pump full time now and it sucks. Has anyone else gone through this and found a way to get your baby to take the breast again? Btw. She chugs down bottles with no problem.
