I’m a 34G and as much as the midwives have tried to help they must have ‘one size fits all’ instructions, useful in theory but I was told not to guide my nipple to baby.. that’s damn near impossible when the little pink bastard is hiding either under my boob against my upper stomach or under my fucking armpit.

I’ve always been pro breastfeeding, breast is best ect. But I’m damn near ready to give up, I’m so frustrated and it’s really getting me down that I’m using more formula during the night.. and day now because she won’t latch on for long, struggles to then gets frustrated with herself trying and screams me a storm 🙃

Any tips or tricks? I don’t want to ask another professional for help, the arched they give doesn’t help. I want real peoples experiences

I've fed 4 children. One for 2 years. I guide it. The only one I struggled feeding was the one I listened to all the don't guide it advice. Have you tried lying down?
