Nursing Strike
My 6 month old is getting over RSV but is weezing, has chest congestion, sinus congestion, is teething and has a double ear infection. She hasn’t nursed since Sunday because she’s refusing to. I will try to nurse her every time she’s ready to eat but she won’t (too painful to suck). She also won’t take a bottle because the same reason in pain. We have been syringe and cup feeding her.
Any tips on how to get her to nurse again?
Anyone have advice, who have gone through the same thing?
How long will this last? Is she just completely done nursing?
It’s causing me a lot of stress and it’s making me very emotional not being able to nurse her through all of this!
