Baby unable to latch despite tongue tie correction so pumping to still provide breast milk.
Measured nipples, got the right flange sizes, found a pump that works but my nipples and breasts are so sore! 5 weeks in and I have a good supply and freezer stash but the pain is alot.
I am pumping once at night then during the day, approx 5-6 times per 24hrs for 30 mins each time.
Any tips?

So sorry that you're finding it painful @MrsMiagi. I'd give one of the BFing Helplines a call and talk it through with a BFC. I haven't got much experience of pumping sorry Flowers

How are you getting on now @MrsMiagi?
