What should I do 🥲

Question

My baby is almost 2 months. He latched but only stays in for a minute or two and then cries a lot and pulls of the breast and he continues to do this. 
He does take a bottle better than my breast. 
I’m so stressed out and don’t know what to do I really want to breastfeed him but it’s so hard to hear him cry all the time 
any tips are welcome

Answer

He most likely prefers bottle over breast cause it’s easier to suck from. This happens when pace feeding isn’t being done. Latch latch latch baby to breast if you are wanting to nurse. Don’t give a bottle unless absolutely needed. Also make sure the latch is good and deep. 
Keep going you’re doing great.

Answer

Does he have a tongue or lip tie that is making feeding more difficult?
Are you leaning back to control fast flow?
Have you tried different holds?

Answer

You're bottles probably made it way easier for him to eat and so he prefers that

Answer

Then just use only bottle

Answer

Also I meant to push keep trying.

Answer

Is he latching properly? Have you tried different holds? You can pump and continue to try breastfeeding, reach out to a lactation consultant for help. 
If you’re frustrated and worried, you can formula feed him. The best thing for baby is to be fed. This isn’t about morality or being a bad parent because of this of that- take guilt out of the equation and do whatever you feel is needed here.
