Day 8, want to start breastfeeding, is it too late? I had an emergency c section which knocked me for six and meant formula was introduced almost immediately. I don’t know where to start, I’ve tried feeding my baby expressed milk (I can pump about 40ml in a day) but he still wants a bottle on top at that feed, I don’t know how to undo the want for large volumes of liquid/ temper his frustration over a slower flow enough to breastfeed. I’m in floods of tears at a moments notice that this might be my one baby and my one chance to get it right for him and I’m very overwhelmed with where to start to fix this.
