My ds is 13days old I have been trying since birth to get him to latch on. Mw have tried also, he will go on for a couple of seconds then just screeams. I have been expressing for him, but as we have been out and about over the last few days, I havent been able to express for every feed, so need to replenish my mil supply. I know I can do this by expressing more often.. ( I think.. am hoping!!)
Can anyone give me some advice.. is it too late for him to latch now as he has been having the bottle...
He is DC no3 The other two wouldnt latch on either so I expressed for them also.. but alas only managed a couple of weeks with both..
When dh returns back to work in 2weeks it will be harder to express as well as run around after toddler and newborn.. (DD is nearly 11)
I just feel such a failure and cant understand why none of my children will latch on..
