ANY Tips for Breastfeeding?

Question

anything in general, comment away!

Answer

Take advantage of the lactation consultant where you deliver! I saved the phone number from the discharge paperwork. My LO is 5.5 months and I still call the LC with any breastfeeding questions/concerns.

Answer

Get a manual pump! I love that thing. Also yes, don't give up. I feel like I got lucky with my little guy. I was supper worried at first that it would be really painful but this little guy is a champ he has no problem latching at all. It shouldn't hurt much btw when they latch correctly! Do if it does hurt then you need to work on it. Don't be afraid to ask for help. I know I had like 5 diff people in hospital help me and I'm so grateful. 
Good luck to you

Answer

if you like to breastfeed dont give up because it is hard and overwhelming at first, I formula fed my first and ebf my 8mo daughter and almost gave up so many times with her

Answer

be patient and don't put to much pressure on yourself. its not for everyone. i so badly wanted to breastfeed but once my son was born i hated it, then i put so much pressure on myself to stick with it and it ended up being the main source of my post partum depression.
