First of all, why is it so hard to find the 'breastfeeding' forum?? Sorry if I'm writing in the wrong place but I need some help/words of encouragement.
We had a gorgeous little boy 12 days ago and he is a super star. He has a really lovely disposition and hardly ever cries.
We've been doing pretty well with breastfeeding but this morning he just wouldn't latch one (either boob). He was obviously hungry (as he gulped down a little bottle of formula) but we couldn't 'get it'.
Same thing happened at bedtime a couple of nights ago and it's really upsetting. Apart from that it's been pretty good.
Does this happen from time to time? I feel awful, like I'm letting him down....
Plus I am so tearful today. Am emotional mess. I thought 'baby blues' hit earlier than this...
I had a C section so can't drive/get out of the house and I've had ZERO space in 12 days. I asked my husband (who is 99% wonderful) if he would take baby out for half an hour and now he's pissed off with me...
Horrible morning (and it's only 8.30)!!
