Hi - can anyone help? Sorry for long post, lots going on.
Dd is 8 weeks, she has been a good feeder but slow to gain and we had to introduce 2 ff and one expressed feed a day to get her weight up. I just got diagnosed with nipple thrush and feeding is SO painful. Dd has been falling asleep on the boob and waking up inconsolably hungry. I just woke up after. 4 hrs sleep and my boobs didn't feel at all full. She fed a short time then fell asleep, I tried to put her down, she woke up and I put her back on only for it all to start again. My nips are far too sore for all this latching!! I am really worried about my supply and worried she's not getting enough of a quality feed. Yesterday I couldn't pump at all as she was basically on me all day doing hourly feeds. Miserable
