I failed to successfully breast feed DD. I had a haermorrage after her birth and I was so run down that a bottle was easier, as DH could do the night feeds. I also found that it was absolute agony! Pain of her feeding was nearly as bad as child birth and I used to dread her crying to be fed. It was like having broken glass ground into my nipples.
What can I do now to help me successfully breast feed my new baby, due in 4 weeks? Should I start using nipple cream of something?
Is it always SO painful? She latched on properly and I feel so bad that I didn't breast feed her....
