I had a terrible time with BF in the first couple of weeks largely I think due to baby being too small for my nipples which are very irregular and big!
Since then I have been mixing FF and EBF. I'm now much better and baby is nearly 5 weeks and a bit bigger (has moved up from tiny baby size clothes, through newborn and now growing in to 0-3 month size).
I am all healed etc and thinking about giving it a try again esp as baby quite colicky and I'm wondering if BF will help her. So just wondering if anyone out there stopped and restarted and how it went. Just looking for a bit of hope.
Also I felt so guilty and sad about not being able to BF at the start, so am a little apprehensive that if it doesn't work again I'll end up back there feeling very low and disappointed again....
