My baby is 1 week old, I breastfed her until day 2, she latched on really well to my left breast to the point it was bleeding because she would only feed from the breast she refused my right nipple, the midwifes in the hospital even struggled to get her to latch on there, she's a hungry baby and wasn't ever satisfied after feeding for ages on the left breast. She got so agitated and screamed until she went blue so they told me to substitute feed with formula. Now I'm just expressing at home and she will NOT latch on to any nipple, has she forgot because she's been having bottles? Help I really want to breastfeed.
