Just wondering whether anyone has any suggestions
I bf my first (now 3) for a year, and once we hit the magic 6 week mark, things went pretty swimmingly. However I had a lot of problems with cracked/sore nipples in huge beginning and very nearly gave up
I now think that I probably just had the latch wrong in the first day or two - and once your nipples are cracked, you're in trouble as they never heal!
I feel much more confident with technique now even though it's been a while since I stopped bf, but just wondering whether anyone could suggest anything that I can do to prepare myself for bf number 2 (due in a few weeks) so that I can get things right from the start?
I'd like to try and avoid the cracked nipple scenario if at all possible.
