Me, whinging again . My ds' behaviour during feeds is really getting me down. I thihnk/know it's down to a fast letdown and oversupply but can't seem to get a system in place to sort it out. If i block feed, it seems ok for a bit, then he gets annoyed and wants more milk so I start feeding on both breasts again, then I have oversupply again and he starts crying, spluttering, fighting at the breast again - horrible vicious circle. Sort of unrelated but I also dread feeding in public. I'm so concerned that anyone should get even the slightest flash of my boob that I have myself contorted into the most uncomfortable positions when I'm feeding - also ds' antics during feeds of latching on/off constantly and crying (so people are more likely to look) doesn't help this. I am having a daily battle with myself not to turn to formula. Anyway I have whinged about this enough on here, but I don't know how I should go about getting help in rl - I feel like I would like to get someone out to observe ds feeding, in case I'm doing something wrong. How do I get in contact with a bfc? I feel like I have to give this a last shot before I give up
