Hi all, I was told this would probably happen but dd3 has started to refuse the breast.
I give her 4 feeds a day and was giving her 2 as bf and 2 as bottles which was working well and making me feel great as she is the first who I've managed to bf beyond a few weeks.
Now she latches on and will feed a bit but doesn't settle into it like before and will just cry over my boob..
I have tried expressing but only get 2 oz max so not enough to give her a bottle of ebm.
She is 3 months, I really wanted to continue until 6 months at least..
So two questions 1- is this the end or does anyone have any ideas / inspiring stories?
2- if I can't 'replace' a feed is it still possible/ beneficial to give her little feeds here and there ?
