I'm seriously considering expressing and bottle feeding... New born was breast feeding fine and suddenly over the last 2 days has forgotten how to do it. It's taking me well over 45 mins to get him on me and we are both getting massively stressed. Last night and today I decided to bottle feed express milk. To be honest I found the experience much more enjoyable and felt more connected to baby. I'm seriously considering continuing long term. The guilts have hit though and I'm struggling with the baby blues.
Any advice?? He is tongue tied and waiting for the referral but he was breast feeding for a few days well.
Thanks lots
