I have a six week old baby boy, 1st child conceived after years of ivf.
I very much feel overwhelmed and a fish out of water in all this
Ill try and keep it brief.
Up till now he was bf'ing well. But recently his latch has gone poor. Hes fussing around nipple then letting out a scream in frustration.
Hr frequently brings up feeds. He doesn't settle after feeds
He cries and withers lying down on his back.
Sleeping is a nightmare for me and him
Ive been told it could be reflux or tounge tie by the sounds of it
But the only suggestions people give are private consultants costing hundreds
Apparently there's no help via my Gp as they can't dx tounge tie or prescribe reflux meds.
Is there no help on the NHS for this kind of thing? Is going private only option?
