Newbie here, first post , luv the site, etc...
Background:-
Our 2 week old dd has started to not sleep from 2am thru to 5am. Has green poo. Is grumpy and grouchy all nite. Falls asleep on the nipple, but when put down screams for more breast. We have been reading your site and it sounds like dd isnt getting enuff "hindmilk" and that maybe the acid in the green poo is why she is so distressed.
Question:-
How do we ensure that she is getting her best "shot" at the hindmilk? She feeds for 10 mins then gives up, she's a lazy sucker. The breasts are full to bursting, and right now we are leaking severley.
Our breast feeding coucillor is away on holiday, and when i phoned the NCT helpline I had to leave my number (no phone back so far)
Any ideas, we are exhausted.
BTW this is the dh writing this message as we can't risk getting milk on the keyboard, its dangerous....
