I've been really struggling. I so wanted to b.f but I've been in so much pain, cracked bleeding nipples. In hospital his blood sugar kept dropping and in the end they found the only way to get it up was to b.f then give him an oz of formula. He's a week old now and I've been b.f all be it very painfully and getting d.h to give him a bottle at 10 so I can get some sleep. Last night it took an hour for him to nurse properly he was sucking but really softly. I made a bottle and when I was waiting for it to cool he finally did it. Today he's not feeding again . How do I get over the disappointment? I've only left the house once since we been home.
