I have a 4 day old baby and I'm struggling with breastfeeding. Sore bent out of shape nipples as I'm just not getting his latch right. I've had a midwife out twice to reshow me, each time I've understood how to hold him properly, got him to latch and he's had a good feed then they leave and an hour or so later I try and feed him and I can't seem to hold him right, it all feels wrong and I'm in pain and can't get him to latch. I feel so hopeless calling them to come back again, I just can't seem to do it without their help
