Feeling very stressed. My 7 month old is crying and crying when I try and breastfeed her. She’s always cried if I try and bottle feed (7months of attempted combi feeding with no success) but today and yesterday she has now gone off the boob completely and is a very grouchy baby.
I can see a white tip on her lower gum and it looks inflamed, that might explain things.
I don’t want to give up breastfeeding for a month or so, as we have a 2 week holiday coming up and for ease I want her to still be breast fed.
She slept through the night for the first time this week, and then this has now happened, and sleep, naps and feeds have gone to sh*t!
One consolation is her food intake is good and her diet is good so I’m not concerned about nutrition for now - just sleep, mood, and my supply (I haven’t pumped yet).
She’s breast fed once today, reluctantly. Offered multiple times. Gone to bed without any milk.
I’m getting very irritable and stressed...
OH doesn’t understand the issue, just thinks she isn’t hungry.
Any advice/stories/hand holds?
