One moment I really struggled with feeding was when my baby was struggling to latch or eat. I started pumping and giving her my milk in bottles and that made her happy. I wasn’t sure why she was getting aggravated and upset when breast feeding. What helped was when I went to a lactation specialist she told me to look for cues and try to feed her before she got too hungry. I was waiting too long! She liked the bottles because the milk came out faster at the times that she didn’t want to wait for it.
I had to attempt to feed her before she was upset even if she wasn’t showing much cues I would try to feed her and she latched perfectly. When I waited to feed her she would get agitated and upset that the milk was not coming out fast enough for her. Feeding a little earlier helped me and slowly I stopped pumping as much and was able to breast feed more! I hope this helps anyone dealing with similar bf issues!!
