Wanted some advice please. My son is 6 weeks old and has been ebf but he feeds almost constantly probably every hour to every two hours which is draining me completely. Have had a breastfeeding assessment and they have said it is because he latches on and then closes his mouth. Meaning that he isn't feeding efficiently and that is why he wants constant feeds. I have been trying to get him to open mouth but he just won't keep it open during the feed. I don't know what to do and am constantly crying as he isn't feeding properly and I don't want to have to top him up with formula. Thanks for any help x
