My DD will be 10 weeks on Saturday and has been combi fed since she was 4 weeks. This has been working really well, my OH would give her a bottle or two in the evening so I could sleep but other than that I would breastfeed.
She had her 8 week vaccinations on Tuesday and since has basically refused to feed. She gets really fussy at my boob if I offer it and will end up hysterical.
The only way I can get her to feed is by a dream feed or to give her a bottle and then quickly pull it away and swap for boob.
Has anyone had this? She's feeding so little that I think my supply will just go.
I've never been able to pump much either do trying to pump to keep up supply isn't really an option.
She will take a bottle easier but is still quite fussy.
I feel a bit sad at the thought I won't be able to breastfeed any longer and hate seeing her so upset when trying to feed but taking a bottle easily Sad
