Can someone please help me?!

Question

My son was born January 11, 2019 and I never breast-fed him I just went straight to bottle. Now he’s having problems with different formulas so I decided that I want to breast-feed him because someone help me get my milk supply back or give me tips

Answer

Have you spoken with a lactation consultant? Most health departments have them, and I’m fairly certain they’re free or insurance covered there. Mine had wonderful information on relactation! Good luck, momma.

Answer

I agree. Try to find a lactation consultant. Because baby didn’t have the chance to try right away it may take him several weeks to learn how to latch right. Babies are born with the instinct but if it isn’t done pretty soon after birth it can take them a little while to remember what to do exactly. So seeing an expert and getting help is important so you don’t get frustrated. It’s also something you need to learn how to do as well. It took me some time to figure out what holds worked best and weee most comfortable, how often he needed, etc

Answer

Lots of skin to skin! Let your baby try to root, latch and nurse as many times and as long as they want. Good luck!
