Just wanted to pick your brains on how people coped in the early days with their newborns. I'm up and down like a yo yo, one day fine, next day sick to my stomach with stress and anxiety, it's starting to get to me.
My baby has been apparently feeding well at the breast, but I saw a counsellor yesterday who said my latch was too shallow, so now that's stressing me out, that her mouth is too small! Then I saw my doc, who basically said I needed to take control of her routine so that I can get my sanity back. The NCT breastfeeding crew are telling me that I should be baby led. All the advice is getting confusing, and I don't know where to turn next!
Also, she's not settling as well as she did last week after a feed and seems to be more reliant on cuddling up to me to be settled at all, how can I break this?? Any ideas out there?
Confused and stressed out... arghhh!
