DS is 36 hours old and has barely fed at all. We've had 4 or 5 little feeds with help of midwives and i have begun hand expressing every2 hours. He's just not interested, all other babies on ward are going for it. Is this normal? I'm getting worried that he'll be ill. On top of that i am massively sleep deprived and sore with bruised boobs from the hand expressing -not attractive! I should say that wewas born at 39wks by ELCS so is quite mucousy.
