So, bubs is due here in about 2 weeks. I am having a c-section, so I am not really focusing on delivery (natural labour, pains etc) but I do know that I will be in some form of pain and quite incapacitated.
I have been told that:
- it could take up to 4 days for my milk to come in.
- to be prepared, as it could take days /weeks to establish breastfeeding, so don't give up
- buy some baby formula sachets or tetra packs ( for emergencies)
- your boobs will be sore
- your nipples will feel like someone has rubbed them with a grater!
- your not a failure if you can't breastfeed.
What else do I need to know, I mean some of this stuff is a bit superficial - I feel like I am missing some vital info!!
