Hi there im just after help really,
My little boy stopped breast feeding at 1 week due to constantly being on the breast feeding for an hour then half hour later back on for a hour all day and night every day since he was born. As I have 6 other children to look after too this wore me down to the point I made the decision to transfer from breast to bottles.
Hes now 13 weeks and has developed an intolerance to formula so the doctors have tried different medications/ milks which only help a little he'll gulp down around 5 oz each feed every 4 hours so is settled in a much better routine but I would like to try to transfer him back to breast as I feel we are much more settled now. I tried tonight for the first time and he latched straight on and suckled for about 15 mins then I changed sides he was happy sucking away for about another 10 mins.
Im just wondering has anyone else returned to breast after a 3 month gap and how they got on?
