Hi everyone, not sure if anyone else has gone through the same as me!
I had a csection at 39 weeks due to baby being breech since 30 weeks and her head stuck under my ribs (she is beautiful and perfect in every way)
I wanted to BF her but the day she was born was a struggle she was latching on but was unable to feed she was getting so stressed but the midwifes insisted that I continue to try and feed her myself one was even trying to help massage my breast but nothing happened at all. Finally hours after she was born I was able to formula feed her, I just feel guilty as I wanted to feed her myself, only 2 weeks after she was born did the colostrum kick in, As midwives have said since she was born due to a csection the body has to start to heal first and that they give you an injection to tell your body you’ve given
Birth but other midwives are not so friendly that she’s bottle fed
Sorry for rambling x
