am going to do a informal talk/answer session for new mums/mums to be tomorrow night at bfeeding clinic.
have been asked to answer things like good clothing choices for breastfeeding, what its like in the early days etc etc.
am wondering how to answer in the ineveitable 'does it hurt' question. should i go for the standard 'not if the latch is corrent' or the more honest 'yes it can be sore as you have a baby 'vascumming' at your nipples which are a sensitive area to start with, and the letdown feeling can feel very painful at first, and when your milk comes in you feel like you have been hit in the chest/or like your boobs are like stone bricks on the front of your chest'
so which would u prefer to be told?
