Am breastfeeding DS2 (7 days). Both nipples ravaged-latch has been checked. Left nipple bleeding-had been for a few days now. DS2 started regurgitating blood at the weekend so took him to hosp-blood test etc all normal and they said the blood was coming from me in the breastmilk.
I just don't know why this is happening to me. Successfully bf Ds1 for 18months with no pain. Could Ds2 have Tongue-tie? (they checked at the hospital and said no, but the midwife on duty wasn't the greatest)..
Can I still carry on bfing if I rest the bleeding side for a few days? What will it do for my supply? (please note I cannot hand express/express with a machine as the pain is immense)..
Who can check for Tongue-tie?
