DS2 is 5 weeks old and we have had feeding problems from the start; bad latch, cracked nipps, mastitis in both boobs, double course of antibiotics, continued pain and discomfort feeding.
I have had peer supporters, bf counsellors, mat support workers and anyone willing to watch us feed, all say positioning and attachment look good, and he is feeding well etc.
So why am i still in pain, i have sharp pain when he latches on, then occasional pain throughout a feed, my nipples are sore when not feeding esp in if my clothes brush them or i shiver, and my boobs itch and have a strange pain in them all the time. i am starting to walk huncehd up in case anyone or anything knocks them.
DS2 doesnt have any white spots or nappy rash.
Does this ound like thrush, should i make a docs app?
