dd is 14 weeks. i've posted recently about our feeding problems but it is just continuing. she just cried uncontrollably for an hour, she couldn't seem to latch on, or if she did she gave a couple of sucks then cried again. i have had to give her some ebm (bang goes my early night - again). i had 5 oz which she guzzled, cried when finished now is zonked out over my shoulder.
don't know what to do. bf group isn't till tuesday, but even then they didn't really know what to do. bf councellor said don't make a big deal and try other breast, but that was 2 weeks ago when it was just the left side. now it is both.
dh has now said this can't go on and we sould put her on bottles as i rang him up crying. he doesn't think anyone can help (they don't seem to be able to) we are going to talk about when he gets home in an hour. i don't want to stop but this is ridiculous.
tried calling lll but couldn't really talk as dd & i both too upset. she has given me her no. to call back later. saw hv today who gave me no. for hostpital ward to speak to bf counsellor but just an answer phone. sorry this is disjointed, but i'm a the end of the line. i really don't want to have to stop. please help.
