My baby was born yesterday. She has fed pretty much constantly for the last 24 hours. I know she needs to do this to stimulate my supply. The midwives have checked her latch and say it's perfect. My nipples are getting very sorry which I know is normal for the first couple of days. I just haven't had any sleep for almost 2 days. She seems quite windy too and is pooping out meconium like a play doh fun factory. Everything she falls asleep feeding, I wait for her to release my nipple and transfer her to her sleepyhead and she then wakes up and wants to relatch. Is this normal? Any tips or should I just power through?
