My dd is 3 weeks old on Tuesday even since she's been born I have struggled to feed comfortably from my left breast. Tonight the pain has got worse it's at though she can't open her mouth wide enough I've reattached and reattached trying to get a more comfortable latch. Ihave mmentioned it to my midwife and health visitor and they both said to keep trying but I dread feeding on my left and spend the whole time crying.my dh wants to buy formula but obviously I don't as the right side is completely fine. Please can someone give me some practical advice I've tried all sorts of holds but seriously don't know how much longer I can go on for.
