Breastfeeding

AmyG

Thank you for taking the time to post an extensive response.  I agree that introducing the bottle early on, which we did at 3 weeks (due to going back to work and a lot of literature I'd read that said it was fine), caused the poor latch at the breast.  I have tried and tried to get her latch properly.  I've read up, watched videos, had several meetings with LCs.  While I know intellectually what to do, in reality I cannot get her to open her mouth wide at the breast.  Even if she does latch properly, she then becomes more shallow and I hear slurping or clicking sounds.

I'm just so confused at the moment and last Friday I was ready to give up BFing, which I don't want to do.  I'm just really frustrated.
