Ds is 2 weeks old and I am bf on demand. I am in complete agony doing it, despite advice from NCT and others. During the latch on, I feel as if I am being stabbed and I am reduced to tears every time.
The pain wears off after a couple of minutes, but I really am finding it an ordeal, physically and mentally.
Would it be a bad idea to express some milk during the night for feed just to give my nipples some rest? I worry that ds will start to reject the breast if I do.
