Bfingt is hurting like buggery! It only hurts for the first couple of secs, but by god, it's excruciating! I BFed DS1 for 15 months, so I cockily thought I'd know what to do tyhis time, but obv not. DS2 is 5 days old now, is it hrting because we are just getting into it? My norks currently look like a couple of zeppelins, and I am expressing a bit before DS latches on, as I know if they are a bit full it can hinder latch etc etc (please feel free to tell me if I am talking bolleaux)

Please tell me it will get better...........

it does get better. but it took me a few weeks. I had a packet of choccy bics by my bed and put one in my mouth everytime before DS latched on.

i think it's your let-down causing the pain at least you have lots of milk

Rofl at the analgesic power of chocolate biscuits! I'd like your thinking if I didn't have about 4 stone to lose.

Mind you, that's what I could probably use my extra 500 calories on.
